It may not be harder, but it requires an outage, whereas using LVM and dynamic 
file system resizing while the file system is mounted does not.  Plus, having 
the z/VM system programmer adding, changing, removing minidisks for Linux 
guests adds to their workload unnecessarily.  I'd rather have them spending 
time on things that make the environment run better, not doing DASD/directory 
management.
