Gerard, Following up on my earlier post ... that kept me thinking, so I started reading ... The z/OS 1.7 Comm Server IP Configuration Reference, Chapter 25 Remote Print Server (LPD) contains a description of the LPDDATA control dataset and its parameters. In there, I can find a UNIT and a VOLUME parameter. See http://publibz.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/bookmgr_OS390/BOOKS/F1A1B451/2.20?SHE LF=F1A1BK61&DT=20060127182800
Isn't that what you are looking for? Or are you looking at some other process?

These dynamic allocations are done randomly on our attached dasd. Does anybody know a way of allocating these temporary files on a dedicated volume? In the z/os SMTP environment are special configuration methods available. I can not find these regarding the LPServe (LPD) environment. We do not use SMS.
