Create a file with the directory entry VMIRMAINT shows you called VMBACKUP DIRECT. Then use DIRM ADD VMBACKUP to add it. DIRMAINT does the rest.
Once DIRMAINT is active, you should NEVER update USER DIRECT. All that is behind you - use the DIRMAINT tools to do directory management. ________________________________ From: The IBM z/VM Operating System [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Dave Keeton Sent: Wednesday, October 15, 2008 6:39 PM To: [email protected] Subject: DirMaint & CA's VM:Backup Software Installation I am attempting to install VM:Backup from CA and it wants me to update the directory with the user info for VMBACKUP. Trouble is, I'm using DirMaint and I can't seem to figure out how to manually add the user as the installation program has spelled out the entry for me. Can I update the USER DIRECT file and then get DirMaint to re-read it? Can I tell DirMaint to manually accept the user info? What's the best way to approach this? The VMIMAINT installation program lets me pick the volume on which to create the minidisks, but DirMaint would be using the EXTENT CONTROL definition instead of specific cylinders on a volume. Not sure how to proceed.... Thanks in advance, Dave
