You're illustrating my point fabulously, David! Thanks! :-) "New Parents" don't need to worry about tracing and debugging. They need to know how where to find the dump (great analogy) and how to get to IBM, and how, even, to contact and talk to the Support Center. How to create ETRs. They don't need to understand TSAF or CSE. Eventually, yes, they need to learn all sorts of things like VMUTIL, building VM clusters, advanced automation techniques, exec writing, how to set the Ready; message to something useful, and so on. Just not as New Parents. (Target audience?) Otherwise you're going to end up with the kitchen sink and about 80 chapters. Divide and conquer. Alan Altmark z/VM Development IBM Endicott
