Hello all,
I have just set up the DIRMAINT on my system and have following question
regarding the definition of full pack minidisk.
Up to now (without DIRMAINT) I defined dummy users to own the special are
as
like cylinder 0 of Volumes, SPACE and SPOOL areas.
In the USER DIRECT file I coded for example for TEMP disk space:
USER $TDISK$ NOLOG
MDISK 50A0 3390 001 END TDSK01 R
*
The address 50A0 is a 3390-3 and so coding END should in my opinion cover
the 3338 cylinders of this volume.
After importing my USER DIRECT and executing a DIRMAP I get following rep
ort:
TDSK01 3390 $ALLOC$ 50A0 * 0 0 1
$TDISK$ 50A0 * 1 1112 1112Over
lap
.TDISK. 50A0 * 1 3338 3338
This means that the coded statement derived from the USER DIRECT is
interpreted as 3390-1 model having only 1112 cylinders. This is true for
all
the full pack minidisks. As the .TDISK. shows the entry should be 3338.
My question is this works as designed or a bug?
Another question would be how DIRMAINT handles an adding of a minidisk. F
or
example: I want to add a new volume to the system. I protect the cylinder
0
to add a minidisk to the $ALLOC$ user. Would there by a RACF profile be
automatically be created? I thought this would be done. Maybe somebody ca
n
point me to the required parameters in the DIRMAINT config files.
Thank you very much in advance.
BR Fox.
