RLS does require CF (coupling facility).
Not everyone has CF.
Assuming one get internal CF for free, there's still effort to transform monoplex to parallel sysplex (even single-member one). And the risk of outage when something goes wrong.

Q: What is the performance gain from having Catalog in RLS?

Is RLS really so few used or so scary?

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?

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
