Talk about shooting yourself in the foot :) I was trying to relabel all my 540... DASD to Bxnnnn (x-type of DASD . IE: P = page, etc) I had updated my directory to reflect the new DASD volsers, but I determined I was missing something and so I backed it out, but I forgot to update the directory using DIRECTXA. I had previosly updated my SYSTEM CONFIG file with the new DASD VOLSERs, but when I backed the changes out of the directory I forgot to update my SYSTEM CONFIG file. So what I have is a directory on DASD pointing to the new VOLSERs and also a SYSTEM CONFIG pointing to the new VOLSERs, but the actual VOLSERs don't match the old 540... VOLSERs.
Is there a way to use the ICKSADSF that's available on the CF1 DASD to clip just the VOLSERs on the DASD?
