[FILE filename ]
[POOLS]
[PRINT]
[STACK [FIFO | LIFO]]
[FIFO]
[LIFO]
[TERM]

Note: Options can be entered in any order.

Definitions

volume

Specifies the volume serial number of the DASD to map. You can specify certain characters and a trailing asterisk to map all DASD that starts with the indicated characters. The default for volume is an asterisk, which tells the command to map all DASD identified to CA VM:Director.

[ALL | ALLOC | EXTENT | FREE]

Indicates the areas to map. ALL maps all minidisks, extents, and free disk space; ALLOC maps only minidisks; EXTENT maps only extents; FREE maps only free disk space.

[FILE filename]

Places the map in the specified file on your A-disk. The filetype of this file is MAP.

[POOLS]

Includes the subpools associated with each extent.

[PRINT]

Prints the map to your virtual printer.

[STACK [FIFO | LIFO]]

Stacks the map in your program stack in first-in, first-out (FIFO) or last in, first out (LIFO) order.

[TERM]

Displays the map on your terminal.

Description

This command maps only volumes that are defined in the DASD CONFIG file; it does not include ignored minidisks in the output. If you want to map all DASD volumes, including volumes that are outside of CA VM:Director control, do the following on a CA VM:Director administrator user ID, such as VMANAGER:

  1. Run the following command: 
    vmxbkp01 hold
  2. Use the IBM DISKMAP command against the USER DIRECT file you created above.
