Remember that if z/OS didn't impose a factitious limit on

In that case, widespread adoption of 1TB volumes on z/OS should

1TB ??? Why so huge? It's... it's... it's almost as much as single HDD in my
PC! <vbg>
What's especially cool is that mainframe volumes can by dynamically configured
to be any size between Mod1 and 1TB. If you ever run out of space on a volume,
just turn the "magic screwdriver" on the remote DASD HMC (SSPC) to make the
volume larger and keep on going. The new size is immediately seen by z/OS.
