David, It shows as SPACE-PRI--------------2 & SPACE-SEC--------------1 I am following up on a hunch on the following: Default Device Geometry : Bytes/track . . . . . : 47476 Tracks/cylinder . . . : 15
This is displayed in the CDS BASE DISPLAY (ISMF 8.1) This would indicate that the allocations is done on 3380 calculations. --- On Tue, 7/21/09, O'Brien, David W.

The USERCAT is SMS managed and resided on vol PLN902 before I reallocated on PLN906. In the CLUSTER definition I had the following : DEFINE - USERCATALOG - (NAME (SYS1.ICFCAT.UCATPLN) - CYL(25,5) - VOLUME(PLN906) - STORAGECLASS(GUASPACE) - ICFCATALOG - STRNO(3) - FREESPACE(20 20) - NOIMBED - LOCK - SHAREOPTIONS(3 4)) - DATA( - CONTROLINTERVALSIZE(4096)) /* The catalog was successfully allocated: IDC0510I CATALOG ALLOCATION STATUS FOR VOLUME PLN906 IS 0 IDC0512I NAME GENERATED-(I) SYS1.ICFCAT.UCATPLN.CATINDEX IDC0181I STORAGECLASS USED IS GUASPACE IDC0001I FUNCTION COMPLETED, HIGHEST CONDITION CODE WAS 0 However it shows : ALLOCATION SPACE-TYPE------CYLINDER HI-A-RBA--------15482880 SPACE-PRI-------------21 HI-U-RBA---------2949120 SPACE-SEC--------------5 VOLUME VOLSER------------PLN906 PHYREC-SIZE---------4096 HI-A-RBA------- Why would the system override my allocation of 25 cylinders primary? Is there a reason to be concerned? How would I prevent this from happening again? Please forgive me for asking all these questions. I am just anxious if there would be a fall out or severe repercussions. Thanks in advance __________________________________________________________________ Looking for the perfect gift?
