I believe the reference is "Managing the AIX Operating System", second edition (September 1988). Starting on page 4-39, it says, "You can use the varyon command to configure an IBM 9332....The only thing varyon ever changes on a module is the names or IODNs of its minidisks." And then it goes on in more detail.... I'd like my $0xF4240 USENET BUCKS compressed and uucp'ed to the address below, please. :-) -j ----- Jason Levitt P.O.
