I didn't know it was so simple. Thought I would have to dig into ACS routines. 
So ISMF tells me this:

STORGRP  SG                VIO      VIO  
NAME     TYPE              MAXSIZE  UNIT 
--(2)--- -------(3)------  --(4)--  (5)- 
VIODA    VIO                 13500  3390

Compared with Ed, we have a very low limit indeed.

I seriously doubt there are any SMS VIO limits to which you are not privy. If 
you can issue MVS commands, you can do something like this (using my systems as 
example):

D SMS,SG(ALL)
which will produce information about every storage group, including your VIO 
groups. Ours look like this:

STORGRP  TYPE    SYSTEM= 1 2 3 4 5
VIO..... VIO             + + + + +
VIO3380. VIO             + + + + +
VIO3390. VIO             + + + + +

D SMS (with no operands) returns something like:

SCDS = SYS4.PHXHQ.SMS.SCDS

Option 6 under ISMF is for Storage Groups. Put in the appropriate SCDS and 
storage group names and choose Option '1' List. The result should be something 
like this:

STORGRP  SG                VIO      VIO
NAME     TYPE              MAXSIZE  UNIT
--(2)--- -------(3)------  --(4)--  (5)-
VIO      VIO               2000000  3390
