IF you installed from IBM tapes/CD as DDR restore the directory should be loaded and dirmaint userid should be there. Check your install again.
If you can log on to Maint and have write access to the 123 mdisk (generally 520RES) you can reload the directory using directxa. Please note that the directory has two areas (in case directory update fails) on the resident volume. IF you load the directory using directxa when you have IPLed the system you only need to do it once. If you load it from another VM system run the directxa command twice to make sure both areas have the directory you wish. Importing directory from a 5.1 system may not be a good idea since the minidisk layouts out IBM system userids may have changed and will not map to the layout on the VM 5.2 system.

When I try to bring up DIRMAINT, I get this message: HCPLGA053E DIRMAINT not in CP directory Looks like I have to create a directory using DIRECTXA. Is this a recommended approach? Is there a way to import an existing directory in another system, which in my case is my existing test system running z/vm 5.1? Also I am not able to bring up the ftp server. Xautolog seems to have done it but looks like ftpserve logs off immediately. xautolog ftpserve Command accepted Ready; T=0.01/0.01 18:37:45 AUTO LOGON *** FTPSERVE USERS = 12 HCPCLS6056I XAUTOLOG information for FTPSERVE: The IPL command is verified by th e IPL command processor. USER DSC LOGOFF AS FTPSERVE USERS = 11 Perhaps FTPSERVE is not in the directory? My memory is rusty on what I did last time when we installed z/VM 5.1. -- __________________ Ranga Nathan Work: 714-442-7591 [This E-mail scanned for viruses]
