Back when we updated the pubs for V1R10, I thought I got rid of all those outdated references. Looks like I missed one. I'll talk to Frank about updating that one for our next release.
To your question, you are correct. If DFSORT's dynamic allocation is being used, then DFSORT calculates the total work space requirement and spreads it across the number of work data sets specified in the DYNALOC parameter.
