We've been using RLS in some of our applications now for almost 10 years. Was a little sketchy at first, but been fine for quite a few years. Used RLS for the CDS's since the day we converted to HSM 3-4 years ago(used to be FDR). Never had a hiccup.

I remember a quote from a z/OS course where RLS for Catalogs was introduced. The Catalog people asked the VSAM people all kinds of questions because they were afraid of consequences. The VSAM people replied: come on, your catalog is only a KSDS, so why are you afraid of RLS? Thereby implying that RLS is so common and reliable that nobody should worry about it anymore. Is it that common and reliable? Kees. -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU] On Behalf Of Kenneth J. Kripke Sent: 08 December, 2015 9:38 To: IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU Subject: RLS implementation for CDS's in DFHSM This is an inquiry to see if there are shops that have implemented Record Level Sharing for their CDS's in DFHSM. 1. Concerns are how frequent have other shops experienced failures in the SMSVSAM asid. 2. Do you have multiple ARCMDxx members to cover in the event of an SMSVSAM outage? 3. Have you had to go through a recovery scenario due to an SMSVSAM outage? Sincerely; Kenneth J. Kripke Kenneth J.
