CICS Guy, I think it does, REPRO is batch and it uses sequential access (i.e. SIS), and this is exactly the same access that is used during the initial load of a VSAM cluster, and it is at SIS time that VSAM applies the free space values.

After initial load yit is better toALTER the dataset to use FSPC(0 0) if you are using Sequential InsertStrategy so as to reduce the potential for CA splits. _________________________________________________________________ Share life as it happens with the new Windows Live.Download today it's FREE! http://www.windowslive.com/share.html?ocid=TXT_TAGLM_Wave2_sharelife_112007 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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 Unless stated otherwise above: IBM United Kingdom Limited - Registered in England and Wales with number 741598.
