yes, we too.

We installed UDCs on system wide level which works fine ... in most of the
cases!
Whenever MPEX is used in fast mode (;PARM=1) the UDCs are by-passed - and
the bad thing happens: groups are created on the SysVol instead of the
PriVol.
To DETECT such "unwanted" settings, a colleague of mine wrote a job which
is checking all accounts on all PriVols whether the groups are on the right
volume. I communicated this a week or so earlier. If you want to have a
copy just send me an email.

Subject:  Using NEWGROUP with user vol sets




The programming staff at WFU has the ability (and the need) to add
groups.  Now that we have a user vol set, the goal is to keep the user
data on the user vol set.  However, programmer's often forget and just
enter NEWGROUP <groupname> without specifying the ONVS option.  Also,
update/install jobs often run add groups and do so without regard to
user vol sets.  Of course, this uses up space on the system vol set.
Has anyone else run into this problem?
