That sound like more trouble than necessary. You can put the DRCT anywhere on the volume. In fact it does not have to be on the IPL volume, just a CPOWNED volume. This does take care and consideration. You might want to do it on a 2nd level test system.
-----Original Message----- From: The IBM z/VM Operating System [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Richard Feldman (WFF) Sent: Tuesday, April 10, 2007 2:22 PM To: IBMVM@LISTSERV.UARK.EDU Subject: Time to move Listers, Have a modest problem. My directory space is at 48%, gonna bust soon since there must be enough space for two copies of the directory. Even with all the dynamic commands in z/VM 5.2 I don't expect I could dynamically move my warmstart and checkpoint areas. To expand my dircectory I would have to move into those areas. Failing any dynamic commands I figure I'll just move those areas to a new location, sys config em, format the areas, and IPL cold (after spxtapeing everything). I could do a clean but would like to save time going for a cold. After the IPL I should be able to allocate a larger drct area starting at the same point, format it, and directxa.
