I followed your procedure, still shows 10 Cylinders. Here is what I did:

What I > did, all is on CKD IBM 3390-9 disk Sorry for the confusion. I think they way I wrote that was a little hard to follow. To reduce some of your effort, just DETACH and LINK rather than LOGOFF and LOGON. Seeing you're using DIRECTXA, here is a recipe for in-place expand: * define 10 cyls after the existing minidisk, call it 992 * DIRECTXA that update so CP knows about it * link to the 992 minidisk and FORMAT it (to get it blocked, in case it is not already) * detach the 992 * redefine the 991 as 20 cyls, removing the temporary 992 now 991 occupies all 20 cyls but starts at same as it did originally * DIRECTXA that so it's online and CP knows * release the 991 and detach it * re-link the 991 and access it * Q V 991 to confirm CP is giving you all 20 cyls * FORMAT (RECOMP FORMAT (RECOMP should detect the number of cylinders it gets from CP and give you the full 20. I HAVE NOT tested the above steps, but have tested FORMAT (RECOMP in similar change-up. The only tricky part to expanding a minidisk in place is that the new storage must be blocked same as the existing cylinders. -- Rick Troth Senior Software Developer Velocity Software Inc.
