That will not work. The database must be on full pack minidisks, which means the minidisk must start at cylinder 0 and go to the end of the volume. (DEVNO minidisks can also be used.) So, your directory entries must be:
MDISK 200 3390 0 END VMRACP MWV READ WRITE MULT MDISK 300 3390 0 END VMRACB MWV READ WRITE MULT The devices must be defined in your SYSTEM CONFIG file as shared.
