This is a pair of questions asked by Radoslaw Skorupka in the RACF-L list as a musing resulting from a question being asked about FFST and SAF.
It seems pointless to have the discussion continued in the RACF-L list which was actually the wrong place to be asking the original question anyhow. - Radoslaw > What is FFST for? > What would I loose without it? The first is quite adequately covered by Chapter 1 of the FFST Operations Guide, SC31-8604-01: http://publibz.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/bookmgr_OS390/Shelves/F0Z0BK01 The second, assumed to be "What would I lose without it?", is answered by whether or not you use products which use FFST calls and whether or not you would lose your good relationship with IBM support if you cannot supply FFST output when you have a problem with any such products. Of course, one candidate - of possibly very few - is the IP component of Communications Server and also - although I know you would so dearly love not to have to use it - the SNA component of Communications Server!
