In working with IBM on this, the problem was:
filepool minidisk vmserva Although you can only have one filepoolid per fileserver, it cannot tell that VMSERVA has a filepoolid of vmsysa: filepool minidisk vmserva vmsysa: So, both need to be specified. (Otherwise VMSYS: is assumed) Frank M.

I'm on the first step "Enter the FILEPOOL MINIDISK command".
