B37 (Space abend) while running Focus Code

We are using 7.1.1 version of Focus. I have written a focus code of 16500 lines. But when i tried to run it through JCL, i am getting Abend SB37. I tried to run the same code by deleting lines and running with nearly 5000 lines. The focus code executes successfully.

Is there anyway to deal with this problem? I want to run my Focus code with same number of lines only. 16500

It would help if you would show us the jcl and the complete error messages you are receiving.

From the IBM LookAT Site for error msg SB37

Explanation: The error was detected by the end-of-volume routine. This system completion code is accompanied by message IEC030I. Refer to the explanation of message IEC030I for complete information about the task that was ended and for an explanation of the return code (rc in the message text) in register 15.

you ran out of room. the IEC030I message (use that at the LookAt Site) and determine your problem.

my guess is that either there was not enough available space on the volume or - more than likely - the DS was not allocated with enough space, since when you reduced your source file, it was ok.

Determine the DS that is incurring the IEC030I msg and follow the instructions provided with the RC of the IEC030I.
