Oh really? And did you then publish elsewhere the contents of LNKLST, the APF list, and other important system info stored in PARMLIB that is NOT performance related? Ever consider that your better application people (the ones who still know how to use assembler effectively and with sophistication, for the benefit of the business's bottom line) might need that information you just closed off? Agreed, outsiders telling you how to bake your bread when it's your oven and your dinner is annoying at the least -- but to cut off access to everyone but the privileged sysprog is closet-think of the worst sort. If the consultants are bothering you, fire them, or limit *their* access (I can see that as a reasonable security precaution, actually) but not the entire shop. The attitude I don't understand seems to be "If I hide it they won't find out how I do my job, or bother me about it, or try to show me a better way to get this business done than I know about". Good relations between sysprogs and application programmers are crucial to business success. Locking yourself and your data in a closet does not help.
