I don't see the flexibility in DISKMAP that I do in the CMS DIRMAP tool. Maybe I'm just not aware of the flexibility but as long as I have DIRMAP, I never use DISKMAP. The DISKMAP HELP file certainly doesn't suggest that there is much in the way of flexibility in it. In addition, I have used DIRMAP for 25 years or so going back to when it was an IBM IUO program, so I'm used to it.

The important thing to remember is to use something.

As a word to the wise, however, always check for an overlap when you manually allocate a mdisk. I use the CMS DIRMAP tool, rather than what comes with DIRMAINT. Always do a DIRM USER BACKUP and then run DIRMAP against the fresh copy of USER BACKUP.

DIRMAP is new to me.  What's the difference between it and DISKMAP?
