An issue has been raised about the "dummy" VTOC that DSF writes when you
format a CPVOLUME. It contains only a type 4 and type 5 DSCB. No
datasets. No free space.
In your experience, is that sufficient for MVS to refuse to allocate space on
the volume? Or is the lack of type 1 DSCB that shows e.g. SYS1.VMVOL
occupying the whole volume an issue?
Perhaps not an issue for z/OS. But, AFAIK z/VSE does not look at the FMT5.
