When data sets are allocated, the primary allocation must be able to be obtained in the first 5 extents. If that fails, the allocation fails.
>From your listing, you do not have sufficient space to allocate your primary >allocation. You could try creating an allocation like SPACE=(CYL,(5,10),RLSE) >and see if you can get the data set allocated. This would allocate 5 >cylinders on Primary and then take up to 16 extents in 10 cylinders each. You >might make that work for you. If it does not, then you will need to reduce >the secondary allocation until it does. That way you do not need to add an >extra volume or defrag packs or migrate data sets. But those should be looked >at as soon as possible. Lizette > >I tried a test and failed.
