Rexx detail, or things I dont do often enough

I have this vague memory of being able to have data embedded inside a Rexx Exec. Some manner of data start and end delimiting lines and accessed via looping with PULL or PARSE. I know I can just PUSH or QUEUE data onto the stack, but that's not what I vaguely remember. Am I all wet, or just

Is there a way to determine if and how much a VTOCIX is fragmented. Way back when (when disk wasn't quite so cheap), we standardized on parking the VTOCIX in the 14 tracks left in the 1st cylinder, and for a Mod-3, VTOC of 105 tracks (7CYL) immediately following, and usually a 2 CYL VVDS right a

The only "moderately safe" way to share PDSE outside a sysplex is read-only, from all LPARs after PDSE creation/population. You can sometimes get away with it if you only update from 1 and only 1 LPAR. But, the latency of the update being noticed by the others can cause issues. Update from 2 or m
