If you run TFS in its own address space you can make it as large as you need and it won't take any storage away from the kernel address space
Mark Jacobs Time Customer Service Inc. <snip> You've been able to use a TFS for /dev since OS/390 2.8. I have been doing that at many different shops. No cons that I know of unless you need to make it *really large* since TFS takes away from kernel storage. On most of my LPARs its 1M or 2M, but it's 10M on one system with a lot of OMVS users.
