For a 3390, it should be 56664 and 15 tracks/cylinder. As I recall, SMS allocation converts from tracks/cylinders to kilobytes based on this number and then DASD allocation converts it back (weird). A 3380 has 47476 bytes/track. curiously 45*47476/56664 is about 38! So you likely have SMS misconfigured. > > > The defect in this design is that it doesn't go both ways.
