David & Les, Makes sense about special forms and physical presense.
As to Les reply that "Use of autostart and ITO really is a personal choice. If you have considerable number of links, you would not want them all active at a time. This was more important back when RSCS only supported 16M. However, GCS still has 16M limitations. But this would be for a rather large (100+) links." Right now, I have 72 SNA3270P links defined, all STARTed. I plan to convert all to LPR. There shouldn't be an issue with GCS virtual storage is this case, right? How much does 1 link consume in terms of virtual storage?

Most common reason I've seen is printers that use expensive special forms, or printers in secure areas that require you to activate them only for specific reasons, and you may have to have some official physically present to certify the printout.
