This could be handy for anyone migrating to new systems, or even managing multiple systems. Sure... we can do it ourselves (and probably most do), but when chip a new wheel from old stone? Could you send the updated MDSK package to the IBM VM Download Page? Yes, you knew someone would ask.
Does it use "ACCESSM0 ON" and then "ACCESS vdev fm/fm (MODE0" the DEFINEd MDISK to keep the user from accidentally writing on the DEFINEd MDISK but still see filemode 0 (zero) files? Thanks!

I'll send Anne my EXEC. But ensure the "old" volume you are working with does not have a volume label that matches an "offline" slot in your CP-owned list. If it does, CP will start to use any non-PERM space on the volume, effectively preventing a DETACH. Hopefully, MDSK does a QUERY CPOWNED first?
