Well, I'm a bit short of DASD, which is why I'm even using NFS. I really need to ask for a couple more 3390-3 volumes for SMP/E type work (I have 3 SMPPTS datasets now - I gotta learn to clean those up, but I rarely ACCEPT maintenance). /tmp around here is a very small filesystem. I wouldn't want to use it for some of these files! -- John McKown Senior Systems Programmer HealthMarkets Keeping the Promise of Affordable Coverage Administrative Services Group Information Technology The information contained in this e-mail message may be privileged and/or confidential.
