Why an extra user? Just use MAINT, and change the addresses. I'd use the password fields to tell which is which, for example MDISK A190 3390 nnn mmm oldvol RR OLD190 TOREMOVE yyyymmdd MDISK 0190 3390 kkk mmm newvo RR ALL And, if you have an ESM, the passwords on the MDISK records don't count anymore, so you can then also store some information on the 190 MDISK record.
