Thank you. I knew I was missing something. I just couldn't
remember that "S". How many times has that bitten me...
But IEBGENER to FBS fixes it.
And I was thinking that what I had specified would handle a TSO
user address space, unless it didn't have enough space for
secondaries.... That's what SMS is for. :)

Yes SYSMDUMP can be blocked. But if it is going to be blocked, RECFM must be
FBS. RECFM=F will be unblocked.
And SPACE=(CYL,100,30) I think that should be able to hold the
whole dump.
Why such a small secondary allocation? That is a pretty small allocation for a
SYSMDUMP, though it may be adequate for the OP's region size. When I create a
SYSMDUMP in batch, and I do it several times a year,, I code
(CYL,(300,500),RLSE). DCB parameters need not be specified, as they will be
filled in properly by the system.
