z/OSMF is not in it's infancy, it's been around for several years now, it's new to force z/OS installs with it. I have now installed my 22nd z/OS install with z/OSMF, (hundreds with Serverpak) and I can tell you that It has gone increasingly downhill over especially the past year or so. The ability to change values (dataset sizes and other attributes) has gone from limited, to okay back to limited again.
It's not a "bad" way to install, but it's not as flexible as serverpak and it doesn't seem to get any better over time, every new install seems to take a small step backwards. Sending in problem reports about the issues seems to be totally ignored. Especially if you tell IBM about the problem and then also give them a work-around. The attitude seems to be, "well, if you got around it, then why is it a problem?"
