In VM/SP 5 there was a program product called FSF (File Sharing Facility). We didn't buy it as I already had a bunch of EXECs from VM/SP 3 which would link the minidisk in R/O mode for accessing. When you Saved or Filed the member, it would try to get the disk in R/W mode, do the save, then get the disk in R/O mode and reaccess the disk. As soon as we got SP 6, all my execs went right out the window. Long live SFS!

Must have been a special customer then: SFS started with VM/SP R6 for the normal mortals. HPO 6 was only available as a special offering in Belgium (but we got it for my customer). -- Kris Buelens, IBM Belgium, VM customer support
