There was a small disconnect between the last and the previous poster,
which is what I wanted to point out. No directory management, no SMAPI.

A doc check shows that DIRMAINT (specifically) was required at z/VM V5R2.
This prereq evolved to a generic directory manager at V5R3+ ... I hadn't
noticed that.

Thanks,

It requires A directory manager, but it doesn't have to be Dirmaint.
Regardless of brand, you'll need some kind of disk/Dir management
package to do any useful automation so I'm not too worried about
making it a prereq.
