Allocate a 3390-9 DASD for a spool volume

When allocating an entire 3390-9 DASD for the SYSn.HASPACE dataset spool volume the following error message is displayed. "IGD17051I ALLOCATION FAILED FOR DATA SET, PRIMARY SPACE EXCEEDS 65,535 TRKS". Allocate the spool volume using the JCL below. //DEFSPOOL EXEC PGM=IEFBR14 //SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=* // ALLOC DD DSN=SYS2.HASPACE,DISP=(NEW,KEEP,KEEP), // SPACE=(CYL,9800),UNIT=3390,VOL=SER=SPOOL1, // DCB=(DSORG=PS,RECFM=F,LRECL=4096,BLKSIZE=3992), // DSNTYPE=LARGE The keyword DSNTYPE=LARGE allows a sequential data set to exceed 65535 tracks per volume. In the JES2PARM member in your Parmlib add the following line to the SPPOLDEF parameters LARGEDS=ALLOWED, /* allows SPOOL Dataset > 65535 tracks
