The AUTHFOR CONTROL  file specifies which VMs include the authority to modify the characteristics of other VMs on the system. This authority can be limited to specific target VMs or to specific attributes of a target VM. This authority is implemented by using DirMaint command sets. The format of this file is column-specific. 

## RPWLIST DATA 

The RPWLIST DATA  file is on the MAINT 2CC minidisk. When installing DIRMAINT, link and access this disk and copy this file to the 11F disk that is owned by DIRMAINT. It can be used to disable passwords that you deem to be trivial. 

## EXTENT CONTROL 

The EXTENT CONTROL  file defines disks (volumes) to DirMaint for minidisk allocation. It also contains system and device default values that are used during allocation operations. The following sections must be populated: 

GLYPH<SM590000> Regions define the actual disks and their sizes to DirMaint. The AUTOR  keyword can be used in user directory entries to take space from the regions. As a preferred practice, the region name and volume label always should be identical. 

GLYPH<SM590000> Groups define pools of disks so that the AUTOG  keyword can be used to take space from the pools, not from specific disks. 

Note:  For more information about DIRMAINT, see Directory Maintenance Facility Tailoring and Administration Guide , SC24-6283. 

## DirMaint-RACF Connector 

RACF can coexist with the DirMaint product installed. However, to avoid dual maintenance of password processing (and other RACF functions), complete the following steps: 

1. Use the DirMaint supplied sample file CONFIGRC SAMPDVH . You must copy this file to the 7VMDIR10 11F disk as CONFIGRC DATADVH .
