Yes the dsn was reallocated. I tried out Dynamic Volume Count (Vroom had
mentioned it) and I was able successfully run the job. It allocated 37 vols.I
am curious to try out your recommendation to use the ALTER. I assume I have to
issued the command while the job is executing because if the job abends the dsn
is deleted. Could you please confirm my understanding?
Thanks.

Did you reallocate the DSN? The value for volume count is set from the
DATACLAS at allocation time. Any changes to the DATACLAS after allocation
are not used. The simpliest way to increase the volume count is to:
ALTER <<<dsn>>> ADDVOL(* * * * * * * * * *)
Put in as many asterisks are you want extra volumes.
