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?

Thanks.
