The tool available via SPPPACK is primarily intended to help you build a correct LOADxx. It also lets you do such things as view symbol-substitution effects in parmlib members. It happens to do syntax checking of IEASYSxx (for the most part) and some of the GRS members. I think that's all

Most shops have a STORCLAS(NONSMS) defined which allows sys-progs to bypass all SMS allocations and use vol-ser for placement. If you have that defined then create a KSDS with STORCLAS(NONSMS) VOLUME(xx) trk(1 0). John Clifford On Wed, Sep 30, 2015 at 12:24 PM, Farley, Peter x23353 <

I'm guessing that most shops have some STORCLASS that bypasses at least some SMS rules. We have NULL. That bypasses volser assignment, but not all rules. In the absence of ISMF, you really need to get direction from your storage admin. . . . J.O.Skip Robinson Southern California Edison Company

Do you have any way to 'flood' the VSAM file with data? If so, try allocating the VSAM file as small as possible, although SMS may give you more than you want. In any case it won't be infinite. Try writing so much data that the file eventually fills up. Maybe you could prime the file to almost
