Alan, I was away from z/VM for a long time and your comment enlightened me. I thought the first parameter was the cylinder to begin with and the second one was the cylinder to end at. As soon as I revised them accordingly. Ran 'directxa user" and logon as LNXADMIN. I got no more error.

HELP HCP1151E is your friend. The device with label VM1A0C does not have 10016+1201=11217 cylinders on it. I suspect that it is not a Mod 27. 10016+So LNXADMIN isn't going to get minidisk 101.

If the volume is not in the CP-owned list, then the allocation map is ignored. In a timely coincidence, I am writing another article about dasd, but this time related to formatting: how, when, and why.
