In our site we use LLA to faster access JCL library from Tivoli Workload 
Scheduler (with great benefits).

I never thought about VLF and that it could be not included in the game ! 
Manuals refer only "fetch access". I wrote a simple "sample" and I measured 
that only the fetch mechanism uses VLF. I think there's no way to upgrade it.

Best regards.

Oggetto: LLA and Cobol copybook library

Hi all,

I have a production Cobol Copybook library that is accessed thousands of 
times a day during compiles.   It's only updated during one 'promote' job 
in the evening. 

I'm looking to improve it's performance by getting LLA to manage the 
directory which has over 10,000 members.   I update the LLA with the 
LIBRARIES(COPYBOOK.LIB) and FREEZE(COPYBOOK.LIB) statements and it appears to 
work. I can update a member and both ISPF and batch still see the before 
member. So far so good.

My first question, is this a valid/acceptable use of LLA to manage 
non-loadlibraries? 

a "D LLA" command shows the library as frozen. 

However, a "D LLA,STATISTICS" doesn't show any MEMBERS FETCHED or DASD 
FETCHES.   Peter Relson's module fetch monitor doesn't show access for the 
non loadmodule library.  Any suggestions on how to monitor the progress?

Finally, Is there any way to get VLF involved as well?

All the best, 

Tom
