I verified the DATACLAS construct. The volume count is 20. I am unable to confirm if the LISTCAT has a EXT-ADDR because the dsn has been deleted. Sorry, I should have noted it before I made the post. Going by to my observation in general, would coding the VOLSERS in the VOL field cause the abend because the DATACLASS has the volume count of 20 and there were 56 volumes in this particular STORAGE GROUP POOL?

The way I understand the 110, you exceeded the 4GB limit on 'standard' VSAM. You'll need to look at the SMS constructs actually being used for your dataset here. You're not giving us enough information here for us to tell. Take a close look at the ListCat information for the file which was defined & ensure that it actually was defined as extended format. If it is, you should see "EXTENDED EXT-ADDR " in the ListCat dd keller //////////////////// G'Day, I encountered the following abend when attempting to define a VSAM extended dsn. The SMS routines (STORAGE CLASS, STORAGE GROUP & DATACLASS) have been correctly defined. I verified if the volumes(3390-3) were empty and all seem okay. IGD17103I CATALOG ERROR WHILE DEFINING VSAM DATA SET VSAMG1.Z56013.VVL000D.MASTER4.SNAP RETURN CODE IS 140 REASON CODE IS 110 IGG0CLEV IGD306I UNEXPECTED ERROR DURING IGG0CLEV PROCESSING RETURN CODE 140 REASON CODE 110 Below is the DEFINE CLUSTER: DEFINE CLUSTER (NAME(VSAMG1.Z56013.VVL000D.MASTER4.SNAP) - INDEXED KEYS(64,0) - SHR(2,3) - REUSE - RECORDSIZE (64,4068) - FREESPACE(15,20) - VOLUME(A24S11,A24S12,A24S13,A24S14,A24S17,A24S19)) - DATA - (NAME(VSAMG1.Z56013.VVL000D.MASTER4.SNAP.DATA) - CONTROLINTERVALSIZE (16384) - CYLINDERS (3815,36)) - INDEX - (NAME(VSAMG1.Z56013.VVL000D.MASTER4.SNAP.INDEX) - CYLINDERS (97,4) - CONTROLINTERVALSIZE (4096)) I reran the job successfully after removing all the VOLSERS except for A24S11. Was it a fluke that it worked? Was the cause of the abend due to having 6 VOLSERS coded in the VOLUME parm? ///////////// This e-mail message and all attachments transmitted with it may contain legally privileged and/or confidential information intended solely for the use of the addressee(s).
