I agree with all the NFS comments...   But...

But the customer's goal is to reduce MVS (oops, sorry, z/OS) cycles.  He
uses FTP today to move the file from MVS to *IX.  While NFS is a choice,
I doubt that it would save a significant amount of MVS overhead compared
to the FTP transfer.

Thanks,
Lee

What about multiple extents across multiple volumes?  (It's a 50gig
file.)

No.

This is what NFS is for and it makes all the nasty problems introduced by
snooping on MVS disks go away.
