I have been investigating using EDEV devices (EMC SAN) for Linux guest
deployment. What I would like to do is request say a 1TB LUN, assign it to
z/VM in a DIRMAINT pool, and then deploy 40G of space to the guests. I see how
to create EDEV devices and I see a few examples of 9336 type devices
Note that CPFMTXA refers to the blocks on FB-512 disks as "pages" and there
are 8 blocks in a page. So the reserved area at the start of a FB-512
volume is 4 pages but 32 blocks. In EXTENT CONTROL, you'd start at 32, not
4.
But - EXTENT CONTROL allows a keyword "Start" for the beginning
