Paul,
Thanks for the info. I am trying to define the HSM MCDS at a maximum number of
cylinders. Below is the DEFINE CLUSTER:
DEFINECLUSTER -
(NAME(PROD..HSM.MCDS) VOLUME(HSM002) -
CYLINDER(4300 0) -
RECORDSIZE(435 2040) FREESPACE(0 0)-
SPEED BUFFERSPACE(530432) -
INDEXED KEYS(44 0) SHAREOPTIONS(3 3)-
UNIQUE NOWRITECHECK) -
DATA (NAME(PROD..HSM.MCDS.DATA) CISZ(12288) ) -
INDEX (NAME(PROD..HSM.MCDS.INDEX) CISZ(2048))
I think I am safe. What says you?

John, basically you are limited to 4 gig (HI-A-RBA) for the size of a
non-extended VSAM dataset. So depending on your VSAM define option you will
get somewhere in the neighborhood of 6,000 cyls. In my quick test I got around
5,800 cyls.
Thanks..

Subject: SMS ALLOCATION OF VSAM DSN [EXTERNAL]
G'Day,
Could somebody please tell me what is the maximum number of cylinders that
could be allocated for a SMS managed VSAM dsn (not VSAM EXTENDED
ADDRESSABILITY). I have been able to allocate a dsn with 6,000 cylinders.
However, due to a lack of disk space I couldn't continue with a higher
allocation.
Thanks.
