Re: Moving multiple minidisk to new volume
Florian, DFSMS has a function to migrate minidisks from a volume to another volume group. But the ChangeMiniDISK function of Dirmaint is primarily to change/modify the minidisk, not to migrate it. Though it would be a simple exercise to obtain the current minidisk definition from DIRMAINTs 1DF disk and build the DIRMAINT CMDISK command from that. Ronald van der Laan
Move multiple minidisks via dirmaint
Dear all, I would like to move multiple minidisks from several userids to another physical volume. I used DIRMAINT CMDISK operator for doing this. However what makes me wondering is, if there is a possibility not to re-specify the size of the respective minidisk. I want only to move the minidisk and not to change the size. To specify t he size can cause mistakes as one has to refere to the DIRMAP in order to en ter this parameter. Is there an easy way such as to specify a '=' or '*' in order to keep t he same size of the minidisk? I didn't find it in the documentation or what would be the best procedure. Thank you very much in advance. Best regards, Fox

I agree with Mark Wheeler that your VSWITCH is of the non-routing flavor. (Another problem with z/OS not supporting layer 2 OSA...send your cards and letters to them.)

Moving multiple minidisk to new volume
Dear all, I have a question regarding the moving of multiple minidisks of several users via DIRMAINT. I saw in the documentation that I have always to respecify the size of th e minidisk in the CMDISK command. I think this is quite errorprone since I have first to check the size from the dirmap. Is there a posibility just only to move the address to a new volume with the same characteristics? Best regards, Fox
