Amazing!  I had read in docs about increased performance
if using collocation - and I understand that.  I only have
collocation on a few nodes here.  But this means
DRAMATIC performance increase?!

APAR says that it has to scan entire storage pool vol to see
if it matches what is needed.  This sounds like a design flaw
to me.  The TSM DB has what is where and whether active
or not, why not just use that?  That is what is done when a
restore is done, right?

If I did a restore of these nodes (I've had real experience
here) it would not take near as long as the "GEN BACK" 
would. (I never finished them, just cancelled as was
obviously taking too long.)

David -

You'll need to review your configuration relative to doc APAR IC49875
to see if the effects described pertain to what you have.
