I agree.  I never did it except in sandbox environments and usually wait a 
couple of 
releases for changing things like that, but never did it in production.  The 
problem is 
homegrown code that may be floating around in production environments that
you don't know about.  I'm often surprised about the kinds of things I discover
running as part of batch jobs when some need to research a problem
comes up.

You can also move the LCCA and PCCA above the line via CBLOC in DIAGxx. 
That was introduced in z/OS 1.9 and the default in z/OS 1.12, so you should
be running with it.  ASVT option was in z/OS 2.1 and still isn't above by
default (maybe z/OS 3.1? I haven't looked).  

All my sandbox LPARs have this coded and I'm sure system software is all
fine since z/OS 2.3.  I think I added ASVT even in z/OS 2.1 in my sandboxes
after all software had z/OS 2.1 maintenance or versions running. 

CBLOC VIRTUAL31(IHALCCA,IHAPCCA,IHAASVT) 

Best Regards,

Mark
