I have sent the following message to Eric.  I thought I would also
ask the members of LSTSRV-L.  I am not a subscriber to LSTSRV-L;

      I am currently having a problem with LISTSERV.  It seems
that Listserv's A-disk (specifically the directory) is being
corrupted by something.  No other disk for any other machine is
experiencing the same problem.  Last fall, the A-disk suddenly
had duplicate files for some, missing files for others, okay
files for the rest.  I went through a tedious exercise to make
the A-disk viable again.  Just recently, several directory
entries have been corrupted such that some fileids are not
displayable (and thus not obtainable) and the date and time
fields are no longer numeric (causing program exceptions for a
simple filelist).  Obviously, Listserv cannot operate.
      I would like to know if there is any Listserv function
(EXEC, etc) that directly writes to the mini-disk directory.  I
have some experienced VM people who are knowledgeable in EXECs
that could help me work on the reason for my problem.  I
understand that you do not support the level of CMS (Rel 6) that
I am running; we just need some direction to begin investigating
Listserv functions and how they interact with IBM software.
      Thank you for your time.
