Hi Mark,

 RACF defines various tables in assembly language that need to be
 assembled and linked in.

 HLASM is listed as a prerequisite for RACF in the RACF specifications.

 However, HLASM has become a for-charge product in VM (it used to be
 free there too.)

 Several sites are now using our assembler for this, saving a lot
 of money.
