>What is your concern with secondary extents on a PDS?
I don't have a problem with secondary extents as such. It is only that I fear the 16 extent limit may me reached sooner with space release. Extent reduction may help, but only if the device has low "extent" allocation activity. Otherwise, chances are lower to get an adjacent extent. >I don't think my "more appropriate" is an absolute in the same way as "not >appropriate for PDSs in any form." Yeah, my statement was probably too absolute :-) I just don't see a problem with highly overallocated space of PDSs. YMMV, though. -- Peter Hunkeler ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
