The SMP/E CSI data sets should occupy a small fraction of a volume...nowhere near seven volumes! The SMPPTS could grow to be fairly large, depending on your APPLY/ACCEPT gap practices, but it's associated with the global zone and not the target zone (i.e., it need not be placed on the sysres volume set). Can you elaborate a bit? -- John Eells IBM Poughkeepsie [email protected] ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
