Our problem is also SMF starts losing data before all files are full:

So sys1.man1e1 does not reach "Dump Required" state, and also SMF has used
all of his space available...

The fact that SYS1.MAN1E1 is "CLOSE PENDING" rather than "DUMP REQUIRED" does not seem relevant to your problem. You DO have an ACTIVE data set: SYS1.MAN1E2, which should be able to record the records. Thus, the switch has occurred, even if the old data set is not yet available for dumping.

Assuming that SYS1.MAN1E1 does go to "DUMP REQUIRED" and you can dump it, before you fill SYS1.MAN1E5, then your only problem is that your in-storage buffers are filling before they can be written to SYS1.MAN1E2, and for that you need more buffers or faster DASD, I think.
