I tried to clone a PDS using the LIKE=dsn parameter on the new PDS.
Here's the result:
| Code: |
6 //COPY EXEC PGM=IEBCOPY
7 //SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
8 //SYSUT1 DD DISP=SHR,DSN=&FROM..R32015.HARP.JOBSJAN
IEFC653I SUBSTITUTION JCL - DISP=SHR,DSN=COW.R32015.HARP.JOBSJAN
9 //SYSUT2 DD DISP=(NEW,PASS),
// LIKE=&FROM..R32015.HARP.JOBSJAN,
// DSN=&TO..R32015.HARP.JOBSJAN
//*
IEFC653I SUBSTITUTION JCL - DISP=(NEW,PASS),LIKE=COW.R32015.HARP.JOBSJAN,DSN=SEU.R32015.HARP.JOBSJAN
10 //

TO BE A MULTI-VOLUME DATA SET, ALLOCATION FAILED

I don't get it. Why can't the new PDS be allocated ?
I don't see anything unusual about the model dataset.
Admittedly, I should have coded DISP=(NEW,KEEP) but I don't see how that should make any difference.
Here's the model dataset:
| Code: |
Data Set Information

Well, there's this:
| z/OS 2.1 JCL wrote: |
Note: Directory quantity is picked up as part of the space allocation attribute except when the model data set is a PDSE. When you create a PDS, the directory blocks must be specified directly on the JCL by using the SPACE parameter. |
Also:
| Quote: |
The following attributes are copied from the model data set to the new data set:
Data set organization
Record organization (RECORG) or
Record format (RECFM)
Record length (LRECL)
Key length (KEYLEN)
Key offset (KEYOFF)
Type, PDS, PDSE, basic format, extended format, large format, or HFS (DSNTYPE)
Space allocation (AVGREC and SPACE) |
Your message refers to Volume count, and there's nothing in that list about volumes at all, so I think you need to add some more stuff explicitly to the DD. The LIKE doesn't just take "everything". |

It may have something to do with how SMS is set up in your shop. I just ran the same JCL and it worked just fine in our environment.
I suggest that you start by adding a UNIT parameter, which might help SMS decide how to allocate the new data set. |

| Thanks for input. I think I am looking at either a known problem (possibly APAR OA22738 or related), or my installation has something wrong with its ACS routine(s). I have raised a ticket to storage support to see what they make of it. |

| LIKE does not take Dataclas as one of its model attributes. It looks like your new file is being assigned a Dataclas that has a VOLCOUNT or DYNVOLCNT GT 1. PDS or PDSE cannot be multi-volume. If you include DATACLAS=PDS (which your model file has) as well as LIKE= you'll probably find it works. |

This is exactly what my Storage Support people told me to do, late last night.
So I learned something new today. Thanks everybody! |
