Jake, this is precisely why I recommend a directory manager such as DIRMAINT to my new clients. Yes, you have to learn to use it, and no, it's not free, but it's not that hard to learn and it prevents accidental minidisk overlaps. AND it will interface with your security manager (e.g. RACF) so that you don't have to do all that manually. Its payback is peace of mind and automation. If you are not running a security manager on z/VM, please contact me directly via e-mail (address below) so that we can chat.
