When you CPFMTXA every cylinder of a volume you know that every track has been

If you DDR or FLASHCOPY or FDR or anything else it formats the tracks that are

And is this a bad idea? In the USS world at our shop, we've had our

a decade with no problems, but we don't run all that much in USS. I

My first thought would be that it isn't a great idea to mount /tmp in Linux
memory as that adds to the working set of the machine. If you want memory I
would make it a z/VM Vdisk and put /tmp there and let CP handle the memory
requirement. But I may be totally off base here. Anybody have

Well, memory is a pricey resource in the z environment (and I don't
suppose it got cheaper on a z10 :)
Now, maybe if you had an application that had high performance needs to
files in its /tmp areas... But other than that, I don't think you'd
probably want to waste the memory.
