Hi Kris,
I now have also a FORMAT EXEC, which rejects to format certain
minidisks, such as MAINT 191, MAINT CF1 and so on. Other thing which has
happened to me, was to shutdown the wrong of two VMs at 11am. Since then
I disable with AUTOLOG1 the CP SHUTDOWN at IPL and have an exec, which

While GLOBALV is useful for setting default behavior (e.g. DEFAULTS), I
wouldn't propose using it as a database of directory metadata. Adding
USER DIRECT metadata to the object directory seems useful and is
relatively straightforward to implement. I'd want filename, file
timestamp, and

Fully agree, so for folks using XEDIT and DIRECTXA by hand (that we
were talking about) they *are* the directory maintenance product...

Yeah, but who maintains such by using DIRECTXA directly?

Hi listers,
I have formatted the MAINT 191 disk with the user direct by accident. I have
restored it from a backup which is one week old. I assume I have done all the
changes to the user direct since then. Is there a way to list the currently
installed directory for comparing with the source?

Unless you're already very comfortable playing with this stuff, I

DIRENT can indeed grab the whole CP directory. I would pass the old
CP dir and the copy obtained with DIRENT to DIRMAP and compare both
maps.
More practical:
- Get my DRM PACKAGE from VM's download lib
- Issue DRM old-cp DIRECT, press PF16
this creates and shows you fn MDISKMAP
Press PF4,
device instead. (Sh... happens)
kind regards

I did the same 25 years ago: at 10PM, just before starting the 1h
drive home, quickly added a new userid to please the customer, wanted
to format this new 191 and entered FORMAT 191 Z used to the
prompts that always come one enters YES...Needless to say I wasn't

The point is that it doesn't matter what you do, as long as you keep a
backup of your source directory in a place you can get to it. That would
