I have some users who requested 150GB of Paging packs so they could do an in core reorg of multiple M9 volume DB2 databases, because that was the fastest way. I told them that was too much and they needed to specify sort work statements. They resisted and the request is pending. Mike: 15 years ago I had the DB2 people demand another 10 paging packs. I ran a quick scan of SMF and it didn't indicate any need for 10 packs. I asked them to justify their needs. They ran to their boss and who inturned ran to their boss anyway you get the idea. They got their packs and it sat idle for over a year. I walked away muttering to myself.
