We use intentionally "STATIC".
In case we need, wich happens rarely due to our weekly IPL's, we
change to DYNAMIC previosly of changes.
We have not reconsidered to change to dynamic.

Since the default for APF is still "STATIC", if someone didn't have an APF
FORMAT(DYNAMIC) statement in their IPL-time PROGxx (or some other PROGxx or
SETPROG used after IPL), they'd still be using the static APF list. They
could change to dynamic after IPL if they had a need to.
Now that it's more than 10 years since we introduced the function, we may
well change the default. The caveat is that when you IPL in DYNAMIC mode (as
would be the case with a changed default when there was no statement asking
for STATIC), if there really is some ancient vendor code that was never
updated that the customer stumbles over they cannot fall back to STATIC
without a re-IPL. If you change to DYNAMIC after IPL, you can fall back to
STATIC in the case of a problem (though in such a case you would lose any
dynamic changes that you made).
Hence, I too am interested in anyone who (intentionally) is using "STATIC".
Certainly our recommendation is that you be using dynamic.
