Yes. Also do a LISTDUMP and found more than x'05------' (80M) bytes described
in ABSOLUTE.

USING SDUMPX directed to a DCB.

By changing it to use LIST64 instead of SUMLIST64 and using SDATA=(,NOSUM)
reduced the ABSOLUTE to about 28M.

The issue is that I try to allocate the output dataset to the size I need (as
it must be CONTIG) and found the amount of "overhead" storage went up quite a
bit from zos1.10.

Should you use the mailblocks package and expect a response from me,
you should preauthorize the dissensoftware.com domain.

I very rarely bother responding to challenge/response systems,
especially those from irresponsible companies.
