    M9C0I012 Update CP Directory CA ACF2 for z/VM ====> You now have a directory entry on your E(2A0) disk called ACF2VM DIRECT This file contains the directory entry for the CA ACF2 for z/VM service machine. You can use it to update your VM directory. If CA‑DIRECTOR is installed and active, you can press PF6/PF18 to add the new directory entry. If CA‑DIRECTOR is not available, add this file to your current CP source directory and issue the DIRECTXA command to update the current CP directory.

    Note: The ACF2VM DIRECT file is saved with a filemode type of 0. If you link to MAINT 2A0 read‑only, this file might not be visible.

  3. Press PF2 to confirm that you added the directory entry for the user ID you indicated.
