Excellent suggestions so far on how to accomplish this, I'd just like to add
a few thoughts.

The VM:Secure VMXGNR tool can be used to produce individual directory entry
files from a USER DIRECT file.  It can also be used to ensure that your
VM:Secure directory manager scheme is kept in sync (using the NEWUSER user
exit, I think).

To produce a USER DIRECT from a set of VM:Secure entries you can use
COPYFILE (APPEND command.  Just be sure to get the order of the contents of
the USER DIRECT correct.  The USER DIRECT must have the DIRECTORY record and
other "CONTROL" records first, followed by profiles, then users.

Lastly, a warning.  If you are going to be swapping the actual VM:Secure 1B0
around (like changing from 1B0 - 1C0, or adjusting its extents, etc.), you
need to ensure that VM:Secure is writing to the correct directory database
disk after your changes.  I always recommend logging off and back onto
VM:Secure after making a change to one of its disks.  This ensures that the
device that VM:Secure is writing to is indeed the one that is in the online
directory.

This warning also applies to relocating your online directory.  This task
often occurs during a DASD migration or system migration.

Good luck,
John.
