z/OS 2.1 "DFSMS Using Data Sets" (2014) still lists single-volume restriction for PDSE. But APAR "OA45917 NON-AMS PDSE CAN BE ALLOCATED AS MULTIVOLUME" reports that an unusable "not valid" PDSE can actually be allocated as multivolume via JCL in z/OS 2.1, closed FIN 2014-09-04. Perhaps the fix will be to make it valid? In any event too late for me -- been retired 3 1/2 years. -- Joel C.
