Frank, you did it again! I start to believe that I had not tried the MOSIZE parameter together with all the rest, so when it's there - no more dynamic allocations :) But as expected I got sort capacity exceeded situations, which I only could solve by adding a high MAINSIZE value like 1000M together with REGION=0M. With all this in place in a separate test job that just ran a standard PGM=SORT with no sort work files it worked like a charm and with an incredible performance, less than 20 secs to sort almost 750,000 records :)
Again, many thanks Frank and all others involved. Staffan ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
