SEARCH390 DISCUSSION FORUMS | Operating Systems

Search390 member "sms390" posted the following dilemma about
restoring multivolume datasets in the Operating Systems forum: "I
have dumped a multivolume dataset to tape. When I restore it to DASD
again, it can not find enough space. I checked the output messages
and found that it wants to allocate a primary space more than one
volume size. I don't know how to restore it."
