Well the "1" means there is 1 user linked to that disk.. that user is probably maint's minidisk. CPFMTXA 499 VPWK03 <==== the 499 is a virtual address I don't remember, but you may need to: a) det it from maint (the mdisk) b) det it from the system (real addr) c) att to maint d) CPFMTXA
-----Original Message----- From: The IBM z/VM Operating System [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Howard Rifkind Sent: Tuesday, July 08, 2008 4:41 PM To: IBMVM@LISTSERV.UARK.EDU Subject: CP Owned Volume Question I have a volume with a label of VPWK03 at address 499. Being that the volume is already labeled should I assume that it has allocated to lets say PERM? Volume shows up as follows: q 499 DASD 0499 CP OWNED VPWK03 1 I would think that being it is showing a '1' it is in use by system. I want to allocate a bunch of minidisks on the volume but am having problems getting it to be available. In the directory I have it define as a full pack mini under Maint. I'm getting the following: CPFMTXA 499 VPWK03 HCPCCF0040E DEVICE 0499 DOES NOT EXIST I haven't done this for a while. How can I get this resolved so I can start to allocate minidisks on the volume? Any help is appreciated. Thanks _____________ LEGAL NOTICE Unless expressly stated otherwise, this message is confidential and may be privileged. It is intended for the addressee(s) only.
