List,

Please forgive the probably simple question but I can't see what I'm
doing wrong.  I am a SMS rookie - it was set up here before I got here
and I haven't done anything with it until now, and I'm having problems.

I'm trying to define an extended-format VSAM linear dataset for
downloading z/OS 1.9.  IBM says the download will be about 6.5 GB so I
need to get the extended working to get it downloaded.  I have never
built any SMS definitions before so it's probably something stupid that
I am missing but here goes.

My plan is to define a new zFS dataset called OMVSBIG.SERVICE to hold
the downloaded serverpac.

I can allocate OMVSBIG.SERVICE with just a few cylinders and the system
allocates it on the correct volume, but when I try to allocate my big
dataset, the system rejects it saying the dataset will go over 4 GB but
isn't an extended attribute dataset.  I can't see what I'm missing and
am asking for help.  Here's the define and error.

DEF CL(NAME(OMVSBIG.SERVICE) VOL(ZB2000) LINEAR -

       CISZ(4096) -

       CYL(25000 1000) SHR(3))

My question is "what am I missing?"


Here is what I have done so far:

I defined a new 3390 mod 27 to hold this thing, and it shows up with
30043 free cylinders.  I defined it using the SG parameter in ICKDSF.
The vol-ser is ZB2000.

Next I defined a storage group called SGBIG with the following
parameters.

LINE            STORGRP         SG                VIO      VIO   AUTO

OPERATOR        NAME            TYPE              MAXSIZE  UNIT  MIGRATE

--(1)----       --(2)---        -------(3)------  --(4)--  (5)-
--(6)---
                SGBIG           POOL              -------  ----  NO


Vol-ser ZB2000 is in this storage group:

CDS Name . . . . . . . :        MVS.SMS.SCDSI
Storage Group Name . . :        SGBIG               
Volume Serial Number . :        ZB2000              
Physical Volume Status :        ---------          
               MB-free :        ---------          
               % Free  :        --                
                                             
  System/Sys SMS Vol MVS Vol  SMS SG  
  Group Name Status  Status   Status  
  ---------- ------- -------- ------  
  WSCP       ENABLE  -------- ENABLE  

I then defined a data class called DCBIG with the following parameters.

DATACLAS        LAST TIME                      EXTENDED       
NAME            MODIFIED   DATA SET NAME TYPE  ADDRESSABILITY 
--(2)---        --(25)---  -------(26)-------  -----(27)----- 
DCBIG           14:49      EXTENDED REQUIRED   YES            
DCLIST          13:47      ------------------  NO             


I added the following to the ACS routines in use.

To the storage class routine, I added OMVSGRP.** as a valid SMS-managed
dataset name.

To the storage group routine, I added:

FILTLIST BIG        INCLUDE(OMVSBIG.**)

     WHEN (&DSN EQ &BIG)            
        SET &STORGRP = 'SGBIG'      

To the data class routine I added 

FILTLIST VALID_DC   INCLUDE('DCPDS',   
                            'DCBIG',   
                            'DCSTD',   
                            'DCLOAD')  
FILTLIST DCBIG      INCLUDE('OMVSBIG') 
IF (&DATACLAS EQ '' AND                
    &PGM NE &NOORG) THEN               
   SELECT (&HLQ)                       
      WHEN (&DCBIG)                    
         SET &DATACLAS = 'DCBIG'       
   END                                 

I ran the validate and activate of the SMS "stuff" I defined above.

Running an ACS test using the following parameters, the system came back
telling me it would use the SGBIG and DCBIG and allocating a small
dataset called OMVSBIG.SERVICE correctly put it on ZB2000


Thanks.
