COMMON Minidisk

Contents

All modules and EXECs that the Servant Facility uses to move and copy minidisks.

Recommended backup procedure

CA VM:Secure copies the necessary files to the COMMON minidisk during CA VM:Secure initialization; therefore, no special backup procedure is necessary. Use CA VM:Backup or your normal backup procedure.

If the minidisk ever becomes corrupted, dynamically rebuild the product configuration information by issuing the CONFIG PRODUCT command. This command displays the PRODUCT CONFIG file in XEDIT. Simply file the PRODUCT CONFIG file without making changes to rebuild the COMMON minidisk. During dynamic reconfiguration of the PRODUCT CONFIG file, CA VM:Secure will dynamically allocate and initialize a new COMMON minidisk. If the permanent COMMON minidisk was corrupted, you must reformat it with the CMS FORMAT command.
