Thanks Scott. I'm heading out the door for the day and I'll talk to you
tomorrow.

Could someone please send me their Z/VM 5.3 Extent Control file to
peek at?
Thanks.

Your EXTENT CONTROL entries came out garbled when I look at
them.. I see 3390-01 in there - which is the size it seems to
be using.
What do your DEFAULTS show for 3390-3 or 3390-03 or whichever
you are using in REGIONS?
It's sounding very much like it thinks these are 3390-01 -- so
either it's being specified that way in REGIONS - or you have
an entry for 3390-03 that points to 1113 size in DEFAULTS..

When you added it to EXTENT CONTROL, did you send the file
back to DIRMAINT and tell it to reload the EXTENT
CONTROL file
(DIRM RLDEXTN)?

This is a new z/VM 5.3 system I'm working on. Very few

I've only added the following to the Extent Control
file.....and the Defaults Datadvh file is set right.
:REGIONS.
*RegionId VolSer RegStart
RegEnd Dev-Type

*DASDType Max-Size 3390-01

3390-02 2226 3390-03 3339 I
just formatted, allocated another 3390-3 pack as
all perm,
added it to the REGIONS in Extent Control, attached
it to
the system, added it
to $ALLOC$, issued Dirm Freext which shows
VOLUME DEVTYPE -------------- FREE EXTENTS
---------------
530TDK 3390 START= 1 AVAIL=
1112 It definitely doesn't see it as a 3390-3?

Does EXTENT CONTROL have a subset of the volumes

each line
is the starting and ending cylinders of the
area that
DIRMAINT is allowed to allocate.
Are you having problems with any other 3390-3
volumes?

Yes, the Extent control file has them as
3390-3.
A Dirm Usedext shows all the users mdisks. A
Dirm Freext comes up empty.

there is something else on the volume?

Hello all,
I have a 3390-3 allocated as all Perm
(PERM 0 3338 3339).
Dirmaint will
not let me allocate past cylinder
1170? I
have another 3390-3 also allocated
as all
Perm and Dirmaint won't let me allocate
past cylinder 1100? Any ideas?
