We know VMSECURE and the rest is big-company politics. DIRMAINT doesn't
need defending. We just need to know how to work with an existing
DIRMAINT installation until we can get the politics straightened out.
I was able to change the directory by putting a USER INPUT file on
DIRMAINT 1DF and erasing a lot of files, which apparently forced some
sort of rebuild. It did the job, but who knows what else I may have
affected, inadvertently?
It seems clear from reading all the documentation that the DIRM
DIRECTORY command is intended to do the job we needed. When we try it,
DIRM claims DIRECTORY is not a valid keyword, and nobody here knows
enough about DIRMAINT to understand why this should be. I was just
looking for a little enlightenment, in case there's something else
related to this issue, waiting to bite us later.
ok

I just gave the procedure to do just that a few posts ago...
Rather than me defend DIRMAINT, maybe you could explain what you
don't understand first...?

Can you make dirmaint produce a standard directory and
start over?
