Radoslaw,
Thanks. I kind of thought that was the answer, that an IPL will fail if the
IODF is in multiple extents. I know that early in the IPL there isn't a lot
of smarts to handle extents, as someone else pointed out.
But still, no one answered your original question, which leads me to believe
that there is no such option to keep a copied dataset to one extent.

Radoslaw,
I see no one answered your post from 9-18. Unfortuneatly, I won't
either. I did have a question though. Does the IODF have to be in one
extent?
I don't recall hearing that rule.
Yes it does. At least production IODF. Otherwise IPL will fail. BTDT.
I don't know any official IBM manual, but ES96 course clearly mentions
such requirement.
