Still, having an indicator that says something like 'HFS xyz has
expanded to the last candidate volume' or '.. to the nth of m
volumes' would be nice for routinely (ie. automated) HFS
management.

Considering that multiple data sets compete for the space on
a given DASD volume and given the fact that HFSs can be multi-
volume any command can only tell how much is left on the current
volume at the time the command queries the DASD's free space.
It may already be obsolete information at the time the command
displays the result.

And how would you go about the candidate volumes? You don't
know what size (models) they are until a first extent is
allocated and a volume is selected.

I don't say such a command is usless but I doubt one can be
implemented to return usefull information.
