Bob, You hinted that you might have SysView installed - I would strongly suspect that it has a display that shows the page dataset usage and that would probably include a display of "slots in use" - this is probably either zero or a small non-zero value at the moment - but not large enough to warrant a 1% usage from "D ASM".
Over time as your workload progresses you will find that the balance of used slots will spread more evenly over the local datasets.

RE: ILR006E COMMON PAGE DATA SET FULL, OVERFLOWING TO PLPA DATA SET Robert Pelletier asks: <snip> I allocated a new page dataset and did a page add some 2 hours ago but it isn't getting used. Could someone tell me why? </snip> Looking at your output I would think that you aren't running any new tasks that are creating new requests for paging. The pages that are already allocated to the 78% full volumes will stay where they are, there is no balancing of existing pages even when there is a great disparity of usage between page datasets.
