Description

The volume(s) specified by the DIRECT record are usually a system residence volume. The minidisk specified by the virtual address is normally a full‑pack minidisk; this minidisk must begin at real cylinder or block zero and extend through the entire directory area. The minidisk should cover the entire DASD.

Important! If other users are to share access to this minidisk, take extreme care to prevent multiple users from updating the CP object directory.

Do not use DIRECTXA, DIRMAINT, or other programs to modify the CP object directory while CA VM:Secure is running. Using these programs may cause the CP object directory to become corrupted. If CA VM:Secure detects that another program has modified the CP object directory, CA VM:Secure immediately ends.
