This will tell you what virtual addresses your MVS guests are using to link those minidisks. Vary those volumes offline to MVS. Assuming the virtual addresses are 47E and 49E, from a userid with privilege class C, enter CP SEND CP XXXX DETACH 47E 49E and CP SEND CP YYYY DETACH 47E 49E.

I have two users XXXX and YYYY that have a INCLUDE MVSLINK profile. Both XXXX and YYYY are MVS systems. I have changed the USER DIRECT to comment out 47E and 49E in the PROFILE MVSLINK and the USER MVSDASD. I have done a DIRECTXA USER DIRECT. I have tried to detach the devices from XXXX and YYYY. That did not work. What else can I do ?
