A good idea. However, we only have 3390-3 volumes. And, as I said in another post, if I have a large amount of "unused" space in a SMS pool, then management becomes unglued. Of course, I could just leave the entire space allocated to a zFS file. I'll see if I can talk my manager into that. Thanks for the idea. -- Trying to write with a pencil that is dull is pointless.
