Hi, Is there a command that can tell what these parameters are set to or do I need to check all the mdisks that DIRMAINT has access to. I started this thread and what we want is simple. For our VSE machines what we want is WYSIWYG. When I want to do a 'DIRM REPLACE', DIRMAINT should

I think David, with Mike's correction is correct. We've got 2nd level MVS machines that are used for our D/R tests. We always start the exercise by loading the D/R backup tapes from S/A DFDSS. The consoles on the 2nd level MVS id's are specified as being 3270 rather than 3215. Works just

While I hesitate to correct David, in this case a correction is warranted. The proper command is: CP TERMINAL CONMODE 3270 Perhaps David's suffering Monday Syndrome? More like what idiot decided that Solaris kernel configuration files should be in XML syndrome. Mike is (of

But were one of your original ideas revisited... if the 80-character limit to the directory records was eliminated, then comments could be in the same line with the actual statement (perhaps with a hex character such as '05'x or x'00'x as the field-mark?), then having to remember which related

Also, some non-VM utilities really want CONMODE 3270. If Mike's suggestion doesn't work, try SET CONMODE 3270 before you IPL 181, eg: CP SET CONMODE 3270#IPL 181 CLEAR (the SET CONMODE will cause CMS to choke, so be prepared). Press Enter after the tape has stopped moving.

I have just been doing some checking because we don't seem to have this problem of comments moving around within the directory entry. Initially, I thought this was because we use special local procedures that interface with DIRMAINT but I just tried some vanilla GET's REPL's without any
