In my shop, volume allocation is done dynamically by the system (as told by the batch management people). So, I havent used UNIT parameter in the job.

Also, I had attached the job from JES output.

Hello,

From here, i'd recommend one or more of the following:

1. Talk with the batch management people and find out how much space is available in the storage class your job dynamically uses.

2. Try a run with these jcl changes (from above - UNIT=(SYSDA,16) and SPACE=(CYL,(2500,500),rlse) and see if that helps. If 2500 is too big, lower it, but if you cannot get 2500 initially, i suspect you will still have space issues. In this shop, our datasets often dynamically span packs (we do use the basic unit parameter), but when i ran into space problems, includeing the ",16" got around the abends.

3. Go ahead and write the COBOL code. After all, most of the folks here ARE programmers icon_biggrin.gif

Good luck and keep us posted.
