Steve's idea makes sense. I have been using " MAP VTOC(0,7,8) INDEX(0,1,6)", which occupies the rest of cyl 0 and then allocate the HASPACE as 3338 cyls. Either way, maximize your space by minimizing the VTOC.

I have to init a volume for JES2 HASPACE. The volume is a 3390 -3 . Below are my parms for the VTOC. VTOC(0,1,29) INDEX(2,0,45) Is that okay? <snip> I would make the VTOC 1 track with NO index. The only file on the volume will be the HASPACE, right? So a minimal VTOC is all that is needed.
