A little OT.. but last night I saw a commercial on TV featuring a couple of thugs saying they just stole 50 million credit cards etc .... and the 'techie' guy said he couldn't break into the system because, amoung other things, it was protected by RACF... the commercial ends with the thugs driving away with a z/10 in the back of their pickup truck saying 'I guess we will just return all of the credit cards'.

I used to claim that the command in RACF was superfluous because the order of parameters was sufficiently unique for each command ;-) I don't see much use for easier ways to switch between sets; would you use one set in the weekend or what? But I suppose this is a by-product of the individual vmxevent profiles.There is great value in those to prevent the audit to fill with business-as-usual events. Rob
