Greetings List - We have used z/OS Fromnetwork do download several 
software products, but this is the first time for an entire z/OS order.

In the doc I receive from my order I read:
======================= CustomPac Dialog Information 
=====================      
Here is the information needed by the CustomPac Dialog as indicated 
below:      
                                                                                
The size of your order is 7816 MB.                                              
                                                                                
You will need space in your download file system for approximately twice        
the size of your order. To convert to 3390 cylinders, multiply the number       
of MB by 1.4 and then multiply by 2.                                            
                                                                                
For example, for a size of 5,000 MB, then:                                      
( (5,000 MB) * (1.4 CYL/MB) ) * 2 = 14,000 cylinders    
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Quick math says that we would need almost 22,000 cylinders, or 7 3390-3 
volumes for the HFS.  Mod 3 is all we have here.

Is this correct?  I knew it would have to be big but wow.

I have searched the archives and it pretty much indicates the HFS has to be 
SMS managed to be multivolume.

Has anyone done this before in this type of envrionment (mod-3's)?  Can it 
even be done?

Thanks to any and all who reply.

Thanks,
Patrick Lyon
