  • Device type
  • Volume Serial Number
  • Starting location of minidisk
  • Date minidisk last updated
  • Block size
  • Number of files
  • Number of CMS blocks used
  • Total number of CMS blocks allocated
  • CP size (physical size)
  • CMS size (logical size)

VMANAGER MSCDISKS File

This file contains information about non-CMS minidisk allocations. Each record contains the following tokens:

  • User ID
  • Virtual address
  • Device type
  • Real volume serial number
  • Link mode
  • Special codes indicating type of disk
  • Starting location of minidisk
  • CP size (physical size)
  • Miscellaneous information (dependent on type of disk):
    • Virtual Volume Serial Number
    • Date minidisk last updated
    • Block size
    • Number of files
    • Number of CMS blocks used
    • Total number of CMS blocks allocated
    • ACIGROUP
    • CMS size (physical size)
    • ACCOUNT code

VMRMDS also retrieves allocation information for minidisks owned by user IDs in CA VM:Secure or CA VM:Director HOLD status and adds this information to the MSCDISKS file. The VMRSDA utility uses this information to create reports.
