I made one of the original requests for this support.  I thought it was
strange to have to provide the VDISK size for each individual virtual
machine in a shared profile environment when it could be done in the
directory, which is perhaps a more natural place for VM systems programmers.

So, for those of you playing along at home:

I'll eventually release a new VMARC, but I need to find and update the
help file sources first, and I need to do the whole thing under update
control and build the package, and in the meantime:

I'm using the 0803 SWAPGEN as my starting point.  Lines 243-244 read:

parse var msg . . . . . newblks .
if blks <> newblks then signal WrongBlks    /* Mismatch, error */

Between these two lines, stick:

if blks = '' then blks = newblks

(that's two single quotes, not one double quote)

And there you go: if you use REUSE (as you would if the VDISK is
specified in your directory entry) then you no longer need to specify
the number of blocks.
