> Does anyone have a way around this? IIRC the DEF MDISK also is limited to the system operator, which I am not on most systems. For this purpose I carry a DIAG84 MODULE that does an update of the active CP directory to re-define one of my mini disks so that I can issue the LINK to get it. Don't have the syntax handy, but goes something like this: DIAG84 RVDHEIJ MDISK 191 3390 17 20 VMA130 LINK * 191 22 RR I used to have an exec that saved and restored the old extent around the link, but as long as you don't logoff/logon before next directxa there is no need.
