This would allow a very large SMPPTS because an HFS or zFS filesystem can span a LOT of volumes. Hum, how big is 59 times a 3390-54 (or whatever the "largest" 3390 volume is now). -- John McKown Senior Systems Programmer UICI Insurance Center Information Technology This message (including any attachments) contains confidential information intended for a specific individual and purpose, and its' content is protected by law.
