Use this JCL to allocate all of a 3390-9, or 99% of it. //DEFSPOOL EXEC PGM=IEFBR14 //SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=* //ALLOC DD DSN=SYS1.xxxx.HASPACE,DISP=(NEW,KEEP,KEEP), // SPACE=(CYL,9940),UNIT=3390,VOL=SER=XXXXXX, // DCB=(DSORG=PS,RECFM=F,LRECL=4096,BLKSIZE=3992), // DSNTYPE=LARGE //*

I'm attempting to allocate one entire 3390-9 volume (150239 tracks or 10015+ cylinders). However, I'm receiving message IGD17051I, indicating the primary allocation can't exceed 65535 TRKS. Its an SMS message but the volume is not SMS. I'm certain JES2 doesn't support secondary allocation for spool datasets and I believe these datasets need to be allocated PSU. I hope I'm not asking an ignorant question, but how do you bypass this limitation? Also, are most of you who have implemented large spool datasets done so with 3390-9? Has anyone done so with 3390-27? Have you experienced any performance problems w/ 3390-27?
