I would suggest that Larry Macioce should look at his directory and see which MDISK use END. If they are just the ones listed then the message can be safely ignored. However if END is used on a MDISK that it shouldn't be then it needs to be fixed.

Typically the minidisks that use the END directive are those that represent full volume paging or spooling (which I believe is the default in z/VM 5.1), or a collection of volumes that can be used for DDR volume dumps (MAINT's 123, 124 and 125, etc).

The message can be safely ignored, it is just a warning.

I can accept that I missed the message everytime but it was brought to my attention by a consultant who has worked side by side with me. I'm having a hard time believing that we both missed it everytime! So let me get this straight. If I were to write the file(directxa user) without using the 'doends' it would leave the dasd with 'end' out of the file? That is the way the doc(help) reads. If this is true then we would have had a problem with our page packs(and a few others) that use the end parm. I'm really confused...not that this is a state unknown to me ,so all help is appreciated.

thanks
