Ron,
Agreed, I had it disabled since I first was responsible for the
product (IIRC it was an FDP). I agree that it skewed TSO response
time numbers. I let sysprogs have it but they used it sparingly and
responsibly. I also set it up so the users could only view *THIER*
jobs. Operators were allowed to see everything.
Usually when a new person showed up and asked for the ability to view
everything. I always said NO and if they wanted to push it take it to
their supervisor. The request never made it past them.

Mark,
Don't bite that tongue in your cheek...
At a site I was in 15 years ago (you know who you are) the head of
Development had the SDSF "DA" screen disabled for all programmers and
analysts. Result was a 5% drop in daily CPUTM for TSO.
This was accompanied by drop in phone calls asking "why is my job
swapped
out" "please speed up my job" "why are there so many CICS regions"
blah blah
blah. What a productivity boost - for me anyway :)
Ron
an update interval of 2 seconds. :-) Actually... I can't remember
the last time I used it. I prefer to hit enter as fast as I can in
the DA screen to chew up as many CPU cycles as possible.
