OwnerUid VDev SYSAFFIN Type Start Size VOLSER Notes DIRECTP A20C * 3390 0 1113 VC6009 Excluded Entry The dirm free shows: VOLUME DEVTYPE -------------- FREE EXTENTS --------------- VC6008 3390-06 START= 1 AVAIL= 6678 VOLUME DEVTYPE -------------- FREE EXTENTS --------------- VC6009 3390 START= 1 AVAIL= 1112 When I added these packs a long time ago, I issued the dirm rlde command. While the models are artificial, I specify *DASDType Max-Size 3390-06 6679 in the default section of the extent file. Are you saying that all of my mod-6 extent records should say LX6008 VC6008 1 6677 3390-06 And my default should be 6678 ?

What do you get with "DIRM USED volser" and "DIRM FREE volser". And, if you changed the EXTENT CONTROL, did you issue DIRM RLDE? And, these days a "3390 model" is something artificial, it is just used to define a DASD with some "well known" number of cylinders: n*1113. And, for your case: a 3390 model 6 never existed as a real thing in the past (as opposed to model 1, 3 and 9) Where I think I do see some problem is the end-cylinder. CP responds it has 6678 cylinders, that is from cylinder 0 through 6677. When looking at the EXNENT CONTROL file entries, I think you tell DIRMAINT the last cylinder is 6678. An MDISK that would include this cylionder would not be LINKable. 2011/5/25 Levy, Alan <al...@doitt.nyc.gov<mailto:al...@doitt.nyc.gov>> I have volumes in the volume extent file which lists the type as 3390-6. LX6008 VC6008 1 6678 3390-06 LX6009 VC6009 1 6678 3390-06 The VC6008 VCONTROL file shows: DEVTYPE= 3390-06 MAXBLK= 6678 ARCH= CKD EXCLD= 0 6678 DIRECTP A30B * The VC6009 VCONTROL file shows: DEVTYPE= 3390 MAXBLK= 1112 ARCH= CKD EXCLD= 0 1112 DIRECTP A20C * I issued Q DASD xxx details and here is the output: A30B CUTYPE = 2107-E8, DEVTYPE = 3390-0C, VOLSER = VC6008, CYLS = 6678 CACHE DETAILS: CACHE NVS CFW DFW PINNED CONCOPY -SUBSYSTEM Y Y Y - N N -DEVICE Y - - Y N N DEVICE DETAILS: CCA = 0B, DDC = -- DUPLEX DETAILS: -- CU DETAILS: SSID = A003, CUNUM = A300 A20C CUTYPE = 2107-E8, DEVTYPE = 3390-0C, VOLSER = VC6009, CYLS = 6678 CACHE DETAILS: CACHE NVS CFW DFW PINNED CONCOPY -SUBSYSTEM Y Y Y - N N -DEVICE Y - - Y N N DEVICE DETAILS: CCA = 0C, DDC = -- DUPLEX DETAILS: -- CU DETAILS: SSID = A002, CUNUM = A200 When I look thru the CPFMTXA allocate list it shows both correctly as mod-6. How do I get the VC6009 dasd to show correctly as a mod-6 and not a mod-1 ? Why does the vcontrol file show DEVTYPE= 3390 and not DEVTYPE= 3390-06 ? Thanks.
