We have an absolutely huge number of DASD (many thousand) and on 2 CU's of 2048 devices each we can have a mix of 3390-03, 3390-09 and 3390-27 (STK Equiv. - 32760 cyls).
We know by address where each size is but the labelling conventions have other meanings so we cant easily tell the size from the volser (unless we specify each one). Each volume will have an extent defined to userid SYSPACKS that will be the true size of the DASD (specific extent - not 0-END). In our DIRMAINT EXTENT CONTROL file we have the following under defaults :- :DEFAULTS. 3390 3339 DECLARE ALL 3390'S AS MODEL 3. 3390-01 1113 3390-02 2226 3390-03 3339 3390-04 4959 3390-09 10017 3390-27 32760 However, when the VCONTROL files are created we get the following (this is an example of a Mod 27 volume with the ACPMAINT entry defines as 1-END) ;- DEVTYPE= 3390 MAXBLK= 3338 ARCH= CKD ENTRY= 1 3338 ACPMAINT 2090 * EXCLD= 0 32759 SYSPACKS D7D8 * Is there any easy way to get the 1-END entries to recognise the size of the DASD based on the largest extent defined? Because SYSPACKS is in the EXCLUDE LIST this is mainly so that DIRMAP could recognise overlaps correctly.
