There remains the practical issue -- what are you going to do if there is a problem with your mods at 3 AM some Sunday morning? Wha t about DR? I would make sure you have reasonably good access to the other shop. You might be able to justify HLASM for reliability (7x24) or DR purposes, even if you could mostly get by wi thout it. I should also point out that when you get to z/VM 5.2.0 there may be a lo t of reassembling -- or even reworking -- of mods required. I don't know whether more features of the HLASM are required by newer rel eases, but it wouldn't surprise me.
