I have gone through installation phases 1 and 2. I am now on page 86 of the Installation guide 7.2A. I have accessed the source directory "user direct" as "C". I have accessed 1B0 as "U". I run VMXGNR USER DIRECT C VMEXIT1 EXEC, and VMXGNR USER DIRECT C NEWUSER EXEC, and VMXGNR USER DIRECT C VMXUNEWU EXEC and I always get this error message: DMSVMX002E FILE 'EXEC TEXT *' NOT FOUND. I've posted this on the CA support forum too. I am in a rush and this list is full of wizards. I hope one of them can help me see the error of my ways.
