It is highly unlikely that you would need a CMS lock. If you are in a properly

no cost for it. The reason, as I was told, for the max number of extents was
due to the number of F3 DSCBs in the VTOC for an extent. So if you consolidate
two extents into a single extent, then it is one extent from that point on. And
only counts as 1 extent.
