I'm almost hesitant to ask this, as this is something that should have been 
dealt with over a decade ago, but is there any difference in having SYS1.UADS 
as 80 byte records or 172 byte records?  Any real advantages?  Peformance 
issues?  I noticed that the system distributed in ServerPac for 1.9 allocates 
UADS with an 80 byte lrecl, and our UADS is still at 80.  

I remember converting to the 172 byte lrecl probably in the early 90s at P&H 
Mining.  When I briefly read some of the doc a few weeks ago, I didn't see 
anything that you couldn't do with the 80 byte records.

I know - this should all be in RACF.  I agree, but management doesn't want to 
change things, and as a contracter, I can't really do anything about it.
