is your question directed at me?

if you're suggesting that the cure to the memory leak issues that cause
the unprotected storage to increase over time is to buy more DASD, I
have to ask... are you working for IBM??? <VBG>

IPLs clear this up. So does spending a fair amount of time taking
servers down one by one to discover the latest cause... down servers vs.
IPL???

It takes most of my clients less time to IPL for a PTF apply than it
does to call me and have me poke around in their system every couple of
days to clear that storage.
