I agree that updating BPAM to fully support a UNIX subdirectory in

However, not
being privy to the internals of BPAM, I cannot comment on how
easy/difficult this would be to accomplish. And SMP/E has a proven
need,
today, for a very large SMPPTS environment. So it might be easier
to get
a business case for updating SMP/E than DFSMS.

John,
You are right on the money in your observation, IMO.
