This is what we do to share our ATL and VTS. VM owns (administrative enforcement only) some drives, MVS owns the rest.

Hopefully you only use END for full pack minidisks - in which case you ca n assume that the mdisk is larger than 200 cyls (unless you know you've got DASD with fewer than 200 total cyls). If you're using END for non-full pack mdisks, it would probably be a good idea to stop doing so. Brian N
