Interesting question. My "gut feel" is that you can't do this. But I do wonder what would happen if the STORGRUP ACS routine mapped the different components of a VSAM cluster into different storage groups, which would put them on different volumes. I do know that the components must reside in the same STORAGE CLASS. And that the STORGRUP ACS routine is not forced to map a given STORCLAS to a single STORGRUP. -- John McKown Systems Engineer IV IT Administrative Services Group HealthMarkets(r) 9151 Boulevard 26 * N.
