Usually the parts in a single Diag x250 request are reordered and kept in
as few channel programs as possible.   However, if alias devices are
attached to the system, these channel programs will be issued to the first
available base or alias device (for minidisk I/O).

Steve,

Does that mean that CP will take the Diag280 I/O apart and move the
separate parts out over multiple alias devices (when available of course)?
