I've found with VM:Secure that I can just put a comment line before the
MDISK statement(s) to document their use as necessary.

I've done that too, but if you use the command to transfer a MDISK to
another userid you lose the comment that was associated with it.

Running VM:Secure *with rules*, one can certainly use the passwords
(since they are ignored) as comments. All the passwords, for example

Very carefully. You can do a DIRM USER WITHPASS, or DIRM USER NOPASS, receive it, copy it, modify it.
Tell DIRMAINT to ERASE USER DIRECT: DIRM CMS L USER DIRECT *
DIRM CMS ERASE USER DIRECT dirm fm
I use this approach

NOPASS, receive it, copy it, modify it.
Do not perform this trick with the NOPASS option: the new directory will
not have any useful passwords anymore. And, even if you'd use RACF (where
directory passwords no longer count)
I do this to provide minidisk descriptions:
MDISK 190 3390 sta size RR read write mult * CMS REL20 DEC2005
The advantage is you can avoid providing non-random passwords (especially
for the multi).
You *HAVE* to provide all 3 passwords, but everything after that is
ignored, so you're also
