To put it another way, if your program is using a program logical
unit (a numbered SYS), STDOPT LINES= won't help.
Thank you to Ron and Tom for your suggestions.
The program on VSE is an Assembler utility writing
to numbered SYS (I don't recall which right now).
I was hoping for an easy
Hello list. In the past I have added several page volumes to several VM
systems, never having updated the user known as $PAGE$ in user direct that
appears to have the first Page volume in there. Since I am working fine
right now, I am hesitant to add the second volume to this userid. I have
The benefit is in preventing someone from accidentally allocating a
minidisk on one of the page volumes.

It's a 'place holder' only. The entry in $page$ is to ensure that the
volume is shown as in use and note eligible for user minidisk. We name
our page volumes VMPG01-99 so there use is obvious. A different naming
convention could lead to confusion and thus the use of allocating the
volume under
I use $PAGE$, $SPOOL$, $TDISK$, $DIRECT$, $SYSWRM$, $SYSCKP$, $ALLOC$, as
placeholders so that I can have ALL of my DASD allocations listed in a
directory map (DIRMAP or DISKMAP). This helps me not allocate a CMS minid
isk
on cylinder 0 of a volume or on top of one of the CP-used areas. This is
I use it as a place holder and central linking site. Since I run VM:Spool and
it requires links to the page and spool volumes this is an easy place to find
it. Otherwise, I use VM:Secure to mark them so they don't get used for
something else by accident.
Can't say about the doc. I have
I've used it as sort of a documentation tool and to also as a place
holder. That way when you run DISKMAP or DIRMAP it shows up in the report
and therefore you know the space has been allocated. Placing the mdisk
statement in $PAGE$ in no way means that $PAGE$ will use it. Of course
if you
Of course if you log on to $PAGE$
$PAGE$ and friends have NOLOG as passwaord, hence if you try to LOGON you
get not in CP directory
I'll send you a HTML document that explains how we use the $xxx$ users and
other worthwile info. It starts with some theory, such as the use of CP's
ALLOC map,
This is true, my bad.
