Re: I just wiped out my 49E disk (LE) by accident.
Daniel,
Sorry. I forgot that SETUP is not a default option on the VMFBLD command.
Try adding SETUP after the ALL in the command string.

Daniel,
The LE shipped with z/VM 5.2.0 consists of the base LE shipped with z/VM
4.4.0 plus all service up through the end of z/VM 5.2.0 development.
There used to be a table somewhere that listed where the various minidisks
were on the installation DDR. I don't remember where that table is
documented though. Sorry.
You can have VMSES/E reconstruct the contents of the 49E at the latest
level of applied service by issuing from MAINT, the command "VMFBLD PPF
4VMVMQ40 LE ( ALL", sans quotation marks. This will take a while to run as
there are a lot of parts to rebuild from scratch.

Re: I just wiped out my 49E disk (LE) by accident.
Any physical full pack backup, whether using VM's DDR or z/OS's DFDSS, or any other system's anybackup, is of little use without a hardcopy of the directory, or a diskmap. You can only restore an mdisk if you know what cylinders to restore. In your case, since the system that lost the mdisk is still up and running, I would suggest doing: Q MDISK USER MAINT 49E LOC DRCT This will display the cylinders in use by MAINT 49E. Hopefully, the DFDSS backup/restore program includes the ability to restore specific cylinders???
