Then you need to CMS format it.  But a whole 3390-3!  Would not a bunch
of cylinders on a minidisk suffice?

        The guy who does Linux wants to put the "VM stuff" he needs when
he installs a linux instance on there.  So, I guess the answer is no, it
won't be z/linux formatted.  It will just be a CMS disk.

        What do you want?  Do you expect your z/Linux guests to ACCESS
it as a CMS disk?  In essence, you already have what you want.  Is it to
be z/Linux formatted?

                I have a mod 3 that is known to VM:

                DASD 1472 LX1472  

                I want it to be a mdisk on MAINT and have all my linux
instances link to it.

                I formatted LX1472 with CPFMTXA.

                It is not in the User_Volume_List but I added it for
next ipl.

                I tried attaching 1472 to SYSTEM, but when I try to
access the vdev 1472, it says it's in OS format.

                Can someone give me the steps to add this dasd like I
want to??
