There are 44 per track. I used to allocate 20-50 cylinders of directory space. Then, I rarely had problems. I never hit a practical limit. I have seen 500 cylinder directories (IIRC). But, the type of data stored determines the requirement for directory space. If I remember: Straight text/data -- no ISPF statistics. Data with ISPF stats -- larger. Load modules -- larger, again. - -teD O-KAY! BLUE! JAYS! Let's PLAY!
