The entries for $PAGE$ $SPOOL$ are place holders so DIRMaint won't accidentally allocate space on these volumes and so that a DIRMap will show the space as used. I would update the $PAGE$ and $SPOOL$ entries to reflect the correct usage.
Q ALLOC scans the disk allocation map to determine what is on a disk, it does not look at the USER DIRECT.
