Hi Ranga: Do your second level VM system packs start on real cylinder 0? z/VM will install just fine to a full pack minus one cylinder so I recommend having your second level system use mdisks that start on real cylinder 1.
I believe that is how we set it up. The DASD usage looks like this for 510RES
DASD USEDEXT VOLUME 510RES 510W01 510W02

 GROUP   REGION  VOLUME    START      SIZE      (END)      OWNER  ADDR
-------- -------- ------ ---------- ---------- ---------- -------- ----
*        *        510RES          0          1          0 $ALLOC$  0A01
*        *        510RES          0       1113       1112 MAINT    0123
*        *        510RES          0       1113       1112 SYSDUMP1 0123
*        *        510RES          1         20         20 $DIRECT$ 0A04
................................................................
*        *        510RES       3331          6       3336 MAINT    05A4
*        *        510RES       3337          1       3337 P684096K 02C2

That comes to 3338 cyls for mod3.
I have some documentation that talks about J disk for 5VMDIR10 (dirmaint guest) but I can not see it when I log into 5VMDIR10. I am not sure what minidisk it equates to.
So you can label your 2nd level systems ZVM520 if you want to - and label cylinder 0 something that makes your DASD managers happy.

I need to relabel the volumes for my 2nd level z/VM, which is our test environment. This is something coming from our z/OS sysprogs. Is there any way to change all references to volume label using some utility? If not where all would I need to change the volume labels? I can think of SYSTEM CONFIG, extent control (dont remember how to access this) and the directory entries.
The DASD at 2nd level does not share any DASD with level 1.
Appreciate your help.
