Mark, YES, but it's not a "now" thing. There are elements that store "persistent" data in /var, and it is expected that this data is there between IPLs. Here's the list of z/OS elements that use /var in this manner. (I'm guessing that you don't use these elements, as you haven't encountered problems using /var as a TFS to date).
- CIM (uses /var/wbem, which we recommend to be its own separate file system) - Cryptographic Services OCSF (uses /var/ocsf) - Infoprint Server (uses /var/Printsrv) - Integrated Security Services Network Authentication Service (uses /var/skrb). btw - I pulled this list from the z/OS Migration book. -Marna WALLE z/OS System Build and Install ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
