Re: Volume for Z/os USS
I assume that you mean Unix System Services and that you're using HFS. I'd recommend switching to ZFS and make everything SMS managed. -- Shmuel (Seymour J.)

Re: Volume for Z/os USS
So many assumptions. 1. USS doesn't use volumes, it uses (mostly) MVS data sets to contain file-systems. These are created/defined with MVS methods. 2. The filesystems can be in either HFS or ZFS data sets. HFS data sets won't "grow" like ZFS data sets can. 3. IF using ZFS, then some of the previous replies may help you.

You have gotten good replies, but I have one more question: Are these zFS dataset(s) used by more than one LPAR? With what folders in what zFS datasets are you having problems? Are they also shared or not?

Re: Volume for Z/os USS
I would first do the command in OMVS
df -kP /pathname
Look to see if it is full
Second do a LISTC ENT('zfs file name') all
See how it is defined
What is PRIMARY and SECONDARY allocations, how many extents, what is Hi RBA U
Is the file over 4GB in size, if yes, then is it allocated as Extended Format
Extended Addressability
Finally once all of this information is collected, if you can grow the zfs
Use the zfsadmn grow -aggregate 'MVS ZFS FILE NAME HERE' =size
0Please verify the command.
This will cause the zfs to grow based on the secondary extent on the zfs file.
You will need to determine what the size of the file is before doing any
actions.

Re: Volume for Z/os USS
I could ask many questions. Let's start with: What version z/OS? How is SMS configured? How are your ZFS files arranged( root and others) and mounted? > -Original Message- > From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List On > Behalf Of Ambrose Jr > Sent: Wednesday, April 11, 2018 8:00 PM > To: IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU > Subject: Volume for Z/os USS > > Hi All, > > My Z/os unix volume is out of space, i'm unable to create or load files to > OMVS.
