DIRMAINT has this concept of regions and groups for DASD.
I am confused about the 'region'. According to the documentation, each
volume is to be associated with a unique region in the region table in
EXTENT CONTROL. Then why have a region?

When I started DIRMAINT, I declared only   10 volumes. I then tried to add
more using DIRM DASD ADD .... I tried add 'region volid', or just 'volume
volid'  - neither worked.

We had to add to $ALLOC$ for DIRMAINT to recognize the volumes. But then
he thought that 3390 - 3 had only 1112 cylinders....!!!

There must be a user-friendly way to add volumes to groups/regions at any
time.

Unfortunately the DIRMAINT command manual was not of much help.

I would appreciate if someone could point me to a good primer on DIRMAINT.
I need to go to a quiet place and figure this out :-)
