The first thing I'd check is the Default Device Geometry defined in your 
SMS Base configuration:

     Mine:
Default Device Geometry 
  Bytes/Track . . . . . . . . 56664 
  Tracks/Cylinder . . . . . . 15 

 in ISMF - Option 8  Control Data Set
then Option 1  Display 








Good Day All,
 
I am trying to allocate a dsn using PGM=IEFBR14 to create a dsn which of 
25 cylinders.  The dsn is SMS managed and it has GUASPACE as the Storage 
Class.  The DC & MC are null.
 
The dsn is allocated on the volume as requested however the space 
allocated is 20 instead of 25.  I was able to allocated the space of 25 
cylinders when I coded UNIT=SYSALLDA,SPACE=(CYL,29),VOL=SER=PROM01.
 
Could anybody tell me where my error is?  Below is my jcl (which is run 
from a proc)
 
//*                                                            
//ALLOC    EXEC PGM=IEFBR14                                    
//A01065   DD  &A01.DSN=&DSNIN..A01065,DISP=(,CATLG),          
//             UNIT=SYSALLDA,SPACE=(CYL,29),VOL=SER=PROM01  
//IXX065   DD  &IXX.DSN=&DSNIN..IXX065,DISP=(,CATLG),          
//             UNIT=SYSALLDA,SPACE=(CYL,29),VOL=SER=PROM01     
//*                                                            
 
Below is the inquiry on the dsn:
