Hi,

I'm using IOF for interactive spool facility. I ahve job with a 10M records in the spool. When I try to take snap using SD and SNAP I'm getting B37 abend due to volume issue. In the snap screen I dont have the provision to give multiple voulems.

Is there any way to get the entire 10M records into a dataset.

It's not working still getting SB37. Looks like "IOF Snap Data Set Options" re-creates the snap data set.

Are the space attributes different from those that you specified for pre alloc ?

Then somewhere in your software package is a way to change the default DASD allocation parameters. Good luck.

I tried that too, its stillnot working. So I wne tot each volume available and found out a volume with enough space in it and gave that voulme name in the snap screen.

And finally I got the snap. icon_biggrin.gif
