I already made it work as I wanted and it works well. When the APAR gets
fixed it would become perfect. The trick is that we do not have
maxsize-redirecting. Everything is set intentionally and dispatched LAN or
LAN-free by class bindings. I still did not read the limitations footnotes
but if what I did was not supported the APAR will close enhancement
request instead of bug :-) In both cases my opinion is that such
functionality is useful.

Zlatko,
I hope you can make it work.  We had been unsuccessful.  But, the recent
client levels that have come out, we have not tried.  It would really be
nice for the thing to work correctly.  Andy has corrected my understanding
and he is going to test some more.  The issue we had was the maxsize would
kick in or rebinds of data that had gone down the LAN pathway.  The
storage
agent would go nuts.  Essentially, we found that you had to rebind using
the
LAN method and then turn LANFREE back on.
