Hello Suleiman Shahin,
The 30051 cylinder disk would be a 3390-mod 27 correct. 3390-mod 9 is 10017 cylinders. Is the mdisk not available on the z/VSE 4.1 system, or is it disabled? Can you do a * CP Q V <cuu> of the disk when it is not available? And please do a VOLUME <cuu>. It would be interesting to see what each system thinks is the status of the mdisk.

First time I use this odd size and wondered if it was acceptable to zVM 5.3 ND Zvse 4.1. I will look for the "offending party". Thanks.
