We did this, long ago far away, at our time share NVIP, IBM 3880-11 w/3350's. 
I'm with you on this Ted, I always liked to keep this, paging environment, 
simple as possible with paging with own volume. This may be a bit of old school 
thinking but when there are problems or potential data management issues I know 
straight away what it most probably is not.  But at this point horses for 
courses, if you will.......

I did it 3330's, 3350's, & 3380's from 1981 to 1989.
Dedicated DASD, control units and channels.
With 3390's, and quad pathing, we started getting away from dedicated paths and 
control units.
But, we kept dedicated packs.

I'm still biased towards the last one.
(Except for the 1-Cyl PLPA 'trick')
