Why the UNPRINTABLE should services for what should be a basic data set type NOT be in the Nucleus? It is the same insane design that made it so that you couldn't have SNA local 327x devices as consoles. If PDSE and zFS are basic, they should be in the Nucleus, possibly above the bar. It is this type of thinking that has crippled us with no FBA devices. > >Peter Relson >z/OS Core Technology Design ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
