Re: old DIRECTXA on MAINT 51D
Eric, I asked myself the same question when reading Alan's reply. I wondered about misc. SES files (maybe a PARTCAT, or something similar that might harbor information about DIRECTXA MODULE on the 51D disk). VMSES/E keeps pointers in so many places, that it's risky to simply work outside the box. So I ran a SCANCMS (and old, but handy public utility), and found only: scancms /directxa/ * * d (hit allcase /DIRECTXA/ * * D (HIT ALLCASE BEGIN SCANCMS * 5VMCPR30 MIGP510 D1 == HIT :PART.DIRECTXA HELPCP :STATUS.CHANGED 5VMDIR30 MIGP510 D1 == HIT :PART.DIRECTXA $DATADVH :STATUS.CHANGED :PART.DIRECTXA DATADVH :STATUS.CHANGED 5VMDIR30 MIGP520 D1 == HIT :PART.DIRECTXA $DATADVH :STATUS.CHANGED :PART.DIRECTXA DATADVH :STATUS.CHANGED END SCANCMS * Files read...293 Files hit.3 Rcds read.82362 Rcds hit.5 Ready, MAINT AT HALINVB1; T=0.14/0.14 09:07:34 So... as far as I can see, there's nothing to worry about by simply ensuring that the 51D disk is accessed R/W as D, and then issuing: ERASE DIRECTXA MODULE D Others have said the same thing about erasing the file, but I find it valuable to show your work, just like in school.

You could be bit by that on MAINT when you're not using a Directory management product to update CP user directory. I have consulted with the Oracle at Delphi. I was informed that you have discovered one of the side effects of the Second Law of Thermodynamics (an unbalanced system tends towards Chaos). Apparently there was some sort of matter distortion wave and the DIRECTXA MODULE was duplicated. Not split in half, mind you, but duplicated. One copy was Evil and went to the 51D. The other, the Good copy, went to the 190. The Oracle and one of her High Priestesses, as one Voice, instruct me to say unto you all: If thou hast z/VM 5.3, then thou hast both Good and Evil. The Resident Evil is to be destroyed at once. Leave not a trace or crumb from which it may regenerate. If thou hast an elder version of z/VM 5.3, then thou art immune and have the protection of the Gods. Sure. Right. This is the problem talking to an Oracle: they talk funny. Delete DIRECTXA MODULE from the 51D and all will be well. Unfortunately there is nothing we can do via a PTF to automatically delete the offending module. (Sysprogs get upset when we start deleting things *we* don't think should be on the system.) Consequently, no need for a call to the Support Center. We will place a notice in the PSP bucket.
