The problem fixed in J13484.112 is not data space specific; for example, the data space exploitation in SFS (DIRCONTROL directories) may be affected differently or not at all (though I certainly would not recommend risking it without J13484.112). All I'm completely sure of is that I'm really not interested in having to debug any more occurrences of problems caused by the lack of MCL J13484.112! :-) - Bill Holder, z/VM CP Development, IBM
