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.

Eric,
I asked the group, AFTER I tried RTFM. Found nothing, so asked wise guys.
I considered the following approach:
pre-allocate the file and then restore into the file. However it is less convenient than simple checking whether restored IODF is single-extent.
