If you are a monoplex you can only have one system in the sysplex so 32 is overkill. It won't really hurt you but XCF has to perform additional I/O to update the couple dataset since it is larger than it needs to be. -- Mark Jacobs Time Customer Service Tampa, FL ----------------------------- If was one thing all people take for granted, was conviction that if you feed honest figures into a computer, honest figures come out.
