Hi, All,
The following question was posed in our shop recently:
"How many jobs can access a DISK DSN with a DISP=SHR before any
performance degradation occurs due to access contention?
"Meaning, We have 1 dataset sitting on disk, we have 35 jobs that need
to access this one dataset, how many jobs can run at one time accessing
this one dataset before the access creates contention and stops jobs
from running?"
All of the access would be read-only, and AFAIK the dataset is non-VSAM.
TIA,
-jc-
