By the way, the object directory is not stored encrypted..
Just some food for thought.

1DB contains the 'monolithic' USER BACKUP which is easier to
read/traverse then the clustered source directory on 1DF..

        Robert,

        

        Wouldn't the DIRMAINT 1DF mdisk be the one you need? 1DB is the
backup mdisk.

        

           MDISK 01DF 3390 3075 018 540W02 MR

           MDISK 01DB 3390 1421 009 540W02 MR

        I didn't log in for awhile and, due to advancing age (actually a
year older tomorrow too), I've forgotten what I made the MAINT password.
And, since this was also the main password used for almost all the
service machines, I don't have any other locations to log into that
would help me. I know; stupid. :(
        
        Could someone with a zVM 540 system please tell me the starting
cylinder of the DIRMAINT 1DB minidisk? I don't think we had any reason
to relocate it, so, I think, with that and a DEFINE MINIDISK command
from OPERATOR (my one working userid) I can get the password I need to
regain control and save some face (other than here, since I've confessed
to you all).
        
        Thanks to one and all for keeping this as quiet as possible.
