As you say, there should be no need to keep it over IPLs. We've had it a TFS since 1.4 with no problems and no need to futz with a physical filesystem.

Looking for advice....

On z/OS 1.7, should the /dev file system be defined as a TFS (temporary file system)? The manuals seem to indicate that all character special files in /dev get created at IPL time anyway, so why not have this file system be a TFS?

Pros?  Cons?
