The only problem with not limiting the region below is if you have a job that
does a variable length getmain to take all available storage and then opens a
lot of datasets you can get errors due to not enough below the line space for
LSQA for the dataset control blocks.

Do you have CHECKREGIONLOSS set in your DIAG member? It will automatically
bounce your initiators when they get fragmented.

It would be great if IEFUSI limits could be externalized into PARMLIB. It is a
pain to have to recode an assembler exit whenever we need to change how we
handle these limits. Not to mention that there are not a lot of us left who
know how to code in assembler.

Using TFS removes the need to manually clean up the /tmp directory since it
gets cleaned up when you IPL. If there are any files you need to keep over an
IPL then they must go somewhere else.

Yes, that is one of the problems with using a TFS. There is no way to expand if
you size it too small.

You are not too paranoid. That is good practice. All LINKLIST changes should be
handled just before an IPL for safety.

Read up on this before you try it.
In the commands manual:

And from the Init and Tuning Ref:(a good explanation)
I notice that the titles of the ETRs have not been converted. That's quite a
pain.

Mark, thanks for the explanation. However, I find it strange that almost all of
the jobs I have looked at in our archives have no TCB or SRB time. I can't
