Hi, 

I use z/VM v6.1 and z10 BC.
I want to use shareable full-pack minidisk to share 3390 DASD without 
typing Volume Serial between multiple OS/390 guest.
Because i often do volume initial, adding volume with vol. serial change 
in OS/390, i don't want to change Volume serial in user directory whenever 
vol. serial is changed in OS/390.
Just want to manage device adress without volume serial like DEDICATE and 
need to share dasd vol.

I found the way how to define in minidisk in user directory in 'CP 
Planning and admin guide like the below , 

* Define the DASD as a shareable full-pack minidisk. The following MDISK 
user directory control statement defines a full-pack minidisk: 

MDISK 199 3390 000 END SYSPK MWV FULLP1 

This statement allocates all addressable cylinders of the 3390 called 
SYSPK as minidisk space, thus making SYSPK a full-pack minidisk. (This 
method is the preferred way of defining a full-pack minidisk because the 
number of cylinders does not need to be known when writing the MDISK 
statement.)

Thus, i define mdisk in user directory like the below, but, guest cannot 
use a minidisk vdev with the following error when log in.

* user directory
MDISK 1508 3390 0 END SYSPK MW FULLP1
MDISK 1509 3390 0 END SYSPK MW FULLP1
MDISK 150A 3390 0 END SYSPK MW FULLP1
MDISK 150B 3390 0 END SYSPK MW FULLP1

* error message
HCPLNM108E TMBAEK 1508 not linked; volid SYSPK not mounted 

It looks like SYSPK is regarded as vol. serial. Is 'SYSPK' not an operand 
value for full-pack minidisk? 
or do i need to do  any other work?
plz, give me any advice.
