Hi, George.
As Kris said, the program don't know the real end of the dasd. He assumes 
the model enough to accommodate the last cylinder defined. Due the same 
problem, avoid use "0 END" for fullpacks.
To bypass it:

Without DIRMAINT: define a dummy machine with all fullpack. Good for 
backup purposes too...  SYSDUMP1 is a good candidate.

With DIRMAINT: see EXTENT CONTROL file. 
Specify the correct dasd TYPE (ex. 3390-09), in :REGIONS. section.
The TYPEs (sizes) are described in DEFAULTS DATADVH file.
If you already uses the dummy fullpack machine, put it on :EXCLUDE. 
section, to avoid a false "No gaps available".

Re: SORTING DIRECTORY GAPS BY USER

This is great, George, ty. 

Just one problem. 

It does not show the GAPs after the last extent on a VOLSER. 

It would be nice to know the GAPS on the tailend of a VOLSER also. 

Must I put a dummy entry on the last cylinder to generate a GAP in DIRMAP 
and/or DISKMAP? 

Is there a workaround for this on VM Tools?

Re: SORTING DIRECTORY GAPS BY USER








George: 
Not sure we understand the question, but... 

Without DIRMAINT, try "DIRMAP (GAPFILE DEVSORT" 
 - Generate two files, one with only the Gaps and other with the allocated 
cylinders, both classified by VOLSER. 

With DIRMAINT, try "DIRM FREE" and "DIRM USED" to get files like the same 
proposal... Or, "DIRM DIRMAP (GAPFILE DEVSORT" 


"DIRM HELP DIRMAP" shows: 
  
Devsort  
   requests that the report is to be sorted by device type followed by 
volume 
   label. The default is to sort by volume label.    
  
Gapfile  
   Generate a file listing gaps in addition to a report detailing the 
current 
   DASD utilization.  
  
   Note:  If you use the GAPFILE option without using the EXCLUDE option 
and 
          excluded full volume overlays are defined on your system no gap  
  
          data will be returned.  Use the EXCLUDE option to eliminate the  
  
          excluded full volume overlays from consideration when building 
the 
          gap data. 
 
   The gapfile is listed in the following format:  
   Field Use   
   1    volid of disk  
   2    device type of disk.   
   3    start cylinder/block of gap     
   4    end cylinder/block of gap    
   5    number of cylinders/blocks in gap    
  
        Note:  All fields are blank delimited and not bound to a specific  
  
               column range.

Or better yet... _why_? 

It sounds as if you want to display users and mdisks, sorted by user (and 
perhaps mdisk, too) which reside between gaps.   
But _why_?  What are you attempting to do?

I don't understand your question.. If there is a GAP then there is no 
USER. ???

I am sure DIRMAINT would obviate the necessity for such a thing, but right 
now this is all I can do.
