Thanks for your help. I re-defined the 123 minidisk to maint and then
fix the Dirmaint  in successfully.


First, I tried to put the PRIVCLASS to DIRMAINT user by maint. It was
not available , however,  option as following errors.


SET PRIVCLASS DIRMAINT +A
Invalid option - PRIVCLASS


Maint need the 123 minidisk (540RES) and dirmaint refer to the disk to
update dictory.
So, I put the DEVMAINT function(?) to MAINT.

SETVMDBK MAINT DEVMAINT

and issue command 'CP DEFINE MDISK 123 0 END 540RES' . it was
successfully defined.

after that, I need more time to fix dirmaint. It was not difficult job.


really thanks again.
