Gil,

Internally Co:Z uses BPXWDYN for dynamic allocation.  Many of the keywords
are surfaced as options.

I'm not sure if this is your question, but for GDG allocation relative
generation references are affected by the "GDGNT" option, which by default
is off.   See the BPXWDYN documentation for more information, but I believe
that this simply maps to the equivalent SVC99 option that controls whether
GDG relative numbers are frozen to the start of the job or float (NT="New
Table").

So, if you want to have (+1) be a new generation (more than once), you need:

ls /+gdgnt

Of course, we often suggest that this be configured as a default option in
the config file.
