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.
