I was fixing an exec with this just yesterday and ran into the same problem. I thought I had an easy solution those months ago by altering 3390-0A to 3390-3 and 3390-0C to 3390-9. Then the 3390-27's showed up and still got translated as 3390-0C. Whoops.
Ended up creating a table for each of the cyl counts to change to the mod I wanted. Found another system that has all sorts of different sized 3390s. So, how to determine how to report dasd that isn't of standard sizes. How about something like 3390-S1 meaning it's smaller than a normal mod-1?

With PTK we can't do that, unfortunately, and with all the changes they've put into CP, it would take a big-time rewrite of RTM to make it work past zVM 5.1.0. I agree with Marcy in that it would be very nice to be able to have some way of knowing which model 3390 you are looking at. Even being able to have a customized screen that would read a table of addresses and matching in the correct device type would be useful.

Mod 27 and Mod 54 don't exist. I just read the ds8000 doc, you can choose 3390 Standard Mod 3, 3390 Standard Mod 9, or 3390 Custom Volume. Velocity, if you are listening, question, any way of seeing the cyl counts in any of the screens for "custom" volumes?

After RAID came along everyone stopped making real devices. Model 27 and 54 never existed. They were emulated model 9's with more cylinders.
