There is another way of making things permanent - through PROFILE EXEC, but I suggest you stick with the directory for these commands. Also, if you are new to VM, I suggest you stick with minidisks - they are so much more convenient that you have to have a good reason to use dedicated DASD. When

Adding the device to the directory and issuing the DIRECTXA does not get the device online to a running server. If you defined the device as a minidisk you need to logon to the vm userid of the server and issue #cp link * addr addr addr is what you defined the device as. If the device was
