Ed, Since we're finally getting to PAV, would you please expand on the problem/issue, e.g. how many PAVs and how much of an increase to the initial SQA?

I honesty don't remember the specifics after so many years (we upgraded to ESS (2105-800) from RVA in 2002). But, the phenomenon is documented in APAR II12396:

OS/390 V2 R6 and above:
SQA Space Shortage During NIP: During NIP processing,
it is possible that the system's minimum allocation for
SQA and extended SQA might be depleted before NIP processes
the SQA parameter. To avoid this situation, you can increase
the minimum SQA and/or extended SQA allocations, using the
INITSQA parameter in LOADxx.   (See OS/390 MVS Initialization
Tuning Reference for information on the INITSQA parameter.)
---------------------------------------------------
This type of storage exhaustion has been seen when
adding ESS d/t2105 subsystems, since this subsystem
typically requires the addition of many devices.

FWIW, our LOADxx contains the following:

INITSQA  0000K 1536K
