Robert, Do you have more than one SERVERNAME stanza in dsm.sys? Are you sure that the DIRMC option is in the correct stanza? Is it possible that DIRMC is being overridden by a client option set?
Try this test, to see what DIRMC value is in effect. From the command line, issue this command: dsmc query option dirmc What does it show? You might need to specify the correct SERVERNAME stanza: dsmc query option dirmc -servername=stanza_name where stanza_name is the SERVERNAME stanza in your dsm.sys file.
