Re: Problems with PCDISK utility on VMS 8.2
the data on the disk? Isn't that _my_
business?
Sounds more like a bug than a feature to me.

Re: Problems with PCDISK utility on VMS 8.2
should I come back the next day because some
bug says that the whole thing needs to be
scanned for some special data which may or
may not be there, and which may or may not be
of any interest if it is there?
I don't think so.
So, why for a floppy?

Re: Problems with PCDISK utility on VMS 8.2
the MOUNT/FOREIGN search for the home block is limited to the first 255 blocks (HM2$C_LIMITED_SEARCH_LENGTH) on the disk. You won't probably recognize the delay when mounting a real disk, but for a floppy, it does take some time.
AFAIK this is meant to try to do additional security checks, if a home block would be present and found.

but if they use the $mount system service the behaviour will be the same.
Purely Personal Opinion

Re: Problems with PCDISK utility on VMS 8.2
if this 'behaviour' change caused by V8.2 - and it certainly is noticable - affects your application or business, please consider to log a case with HP support.
We have analyzed and pin-pointed the problem, so it should be sent straightforward to OpenVMS Engineering.

Re: Problems with PCDISK utility on VMS 8.2
We have raised the problem with HP Engeneering support through our supplier so hopefully there will be a patch available in the future.
