In my case, I would also have liked to have a simpler way to set up a series of disk volumes that were set up as an array of RRD40s for a CD collection I have mounted on my VAX (VMS). Right now, I'm filled up with DUA0-3, DUB0-3, DUC0-3, and DUD0-3, giving me 16 total volumes (used as 3 virtual hard drives and 13 virtual CD drives).

I think the limitation here is in the hardware devices available to VMS itself. The controllers being emulated (and thus the matching device drivers) probably didn't support more than 4 devices per controller, so that's why we're limited in this fashion.

I'd suggest creating a very large volume with RAUSER and housing each of your CD images on that large volume and just use LD to create units within VMS to make them accessible.
