Perhaps you can clarify something. If I understand correctly, 2 PAVs are assigned to each page dataset; 1 PAV for single-page requests, and 1 PAV for block requests. If so, is it possible to have any block requests against the PLPA or COMMON page datasets? I understand that if both are on the same volume, each will have its own path to the dataset, but will it have both? Just curious. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
