If you are moving MAINT 190 you must use DDR to copy all of it. If you move MAINT 19E and you use
DDR then you don't have to save CMS after it is moved. With any other disk you can save the FORMAT
step and the ACCESS.
Your plan would work if you are careful. If you just comment out the original MDISK, DIRMAP will
show that as free space. No problem, unless you or someone else decides to use that free space. :(
Anyone that is still linked to the old space will get errors.

For example, I created a new 193 ... new address 1193 accessed it as E
and did a format of the new 1193 mini accessed as F.
I then did a copy from 193 to 1193. No issue here.
Now is it save to swap the 1193 to 193 although several user have access
to the 193. In the directory I'm going to comment out the original 193
and give the 1193 mini the 193 address. (your comments please)
Several people have mentioned DDR for the copy. What is the advantage
there ... if any.
