    This seems to be a good idea. IBM will consider it for a future release should resources allow.

    I am not sure how ICKSF fits into this. Do you mean IDCAMS? Also, by index limit, do you mean GDS limit? The LIMIT value should be at the sole discretion of the each case user because the need will vary greatly.
