Any disk with the same volser will have the same map. You probably need to verify that none of the disks in question has been initialized and put into use on MVS before you do anything. You also need to verify that there are not two sets of overlapping or replicated allocations defined in the directory for the duplicated volsers. You might wind up with two users inadvertently using the same disks.

The operators = replyed to one of them and MVS went alon it's merry way. Now when I added the vols I went into the user directory and checked dasd= names allocated and there wasn't one there, anywhrere. And I also did a Q= dasd and it didn't show there either. So now I'm confused so I list all dasd (q nnnn-nnnn) and I found some wei= rd things there. It looks as if the person that set up the instances might = have named certain packs but never put them into the system. Here is a = snippet if a display: 63C3 CP SYSTEM LDTR01 1 63C4 CP SYSTEM LDML01 1 63C5 LDML02 63C6 CP SYSTEM LDMR01 1 63C7 LDMR02 63C8 CP SYSTEM LDPL01 1 63C9 LDPL02 63CA CP SYSTEM LDPR01 1 63CB LDPR02 ==> this is the dup(also one on 6332) I looks as if there are several devices in this mode . So I want to cpfmtxa this guy. I guessing I can because it looks to me th= at the dev was named(duh) but nerver brought online and definitely not added= to user direct. From reading old posts I also guessing that Linux CANNOT= touch this device because it isn't listed as a minidisk. Well it is but n= ot this one. One more question. If there were 2 names in user direct and you processed= the file (diskmap and directxa) would it have beeen caught there?? I looking for opinions. thanks Mace -------------------------------------------------------- If you are not an intended recipient of this e-mail, please notify the sender, delete it and do not read, act upon, print, disclose, copy, retain or redistribute it.
