What do you mean by High Level Water mark?

There is no limit to the number of files that can be created on the mainframe 
unless there are exits or processes put in place.

Please provide a clearer statement of what you are looking for or supply 
examples.

Bassically all datasets created in an MVS z/OS enviroment consist of  high 
level qualifiers  or aliases.  The HLQ can be from 1 to 8 characters in length. 
 Separating the data names are dots "."

So I can create (provided I have access) a data set called A or A.B or  A.B.C 
or A.B.C  upto 44 characters in length.  Unless it is a GDG in which case it is 
 35.

So, what are you looking for?
The number of Aliases that can be handled by one usercat?
The number of data sets a single HLQ can have allocated?
The amount of dasd or  tape one HLQ can allocate?

Please be more specific.
