We assumed the same and did the same scouring. Someone on my team even opened an ETR asking and that didn't provide an answer either. I think this is an area that could use a little more doc, please. And thank you Michael for the answer! >Now that we have the COMMAND statement, there is no longer a compelling >reason to add or change directory statements if there is a SET or DEFINE >command to alter the virtual machine configuration. Most changes will be >in the OPTIONS statement. And that's fine. Just need to know how to do it. Maybe the Planning and Admin manual could be updated under the CPU statement in the directory saying that if need to change the type of a CPU to use command define cpu statement. And it's probably more confusing for us because these same virtual machines need to be able to run in 3 different sites, each with a different config (1 IFL only, 1 CP only, 1 mixed - just for added fun I guess...) marcy
