I am a proponent of zEDC and would recommend to management enabling this 
feature, (which is presently configured 'FEATURENAME(zEDC)  STATE(DISABLED)' in 
IFAPRD00.    

My question relative to this issue would be my ability to present to management 
a position that would demonstrate the comparison cost savings relative to the 
'zEDC' cost(s).

Any suggestions?  I have considered running this by Cheryl Watson. 

Thanks,

Rob Jackson

Yes, a client we support is seeing very positive results, exploiting zEDC 
data-compression (up to 8-to-1) with SMF LOGSTREAMs and sequential datasets; 
just now starting to investigate DFHSM opportunities.  Important to stay 
current on IBM z/OS maintenance -- most recent was a nagging S002-F6 
intermittent ABEND which was corrected with maintenance.
