Hi,

I've managed to relaocate the pagefile.sys of my VMS7.3 to the secondary
disk disk1$dia1 because of space considerations of the first disk (380MB
total, free blocks 228672 now).

I've seen complaints of the system that the disk wasn't properly dismounted
after each reboot and would be rebuild. A hint from my friend Vaxman was,
to mount the disk with the option /NOREBUILD in SYPAGSWPFILES.COM so it
looks like this now:

$ MOUNT/SYSTEM/NOASSIST/NOREBUILD DISK1$DIA1: DATA1
$ RUN SYS$SYSTEM:SYSGEN
 INSTALL DISK1$DIA1:[SYSEXE]PAGEFILE1.SYS/PAGEFILE  
 EXIT
$ EXIT

Is there an other way to properly dismount the drive at the shutdown?
My home directory lives on the 2nd disk too..and I think /NOREBUILD
supresses the warning message, but not the problem at all..


Regards,

Holm
