Issue/Introduction

Question:

I’m trying to use VMSECURE CHGMDISK to move some Linux minidisks to new dasd.  

Here is the command I am trying to issue that results in error:  

 vmdirect chgm lnxcovt1 200 lnxcomn volser zvpl02 loc 33227 

VMXCHG0637E The minidisk size VOLSER must be an integer no longer than 10 digits  

 

What is the proper syntax? 

 

Environment

Release: VMSECR00400-3.2-VM:Secure
Component:

Resolution

Answer:

The parameters are positional.

 

vmdirect chgm lnxcovt1 200 lnxcomn volser zvpl02 loc 33227  

should be changed to  

vmdirect chgm lnxcovt1 200 lnxcomn = = zvpl02 33227
