Tell us about the application. There are some limitations for some dataset types, but some of the limitations are relieved, or can be bypassed. Example: PS dataset is limited to 64k TRK which means a little more than 3390-3. However you can use DSNTYPE=LARGE or extended format dataset instead of "regular" PS.

This seems confused. The 64K track limitation is on the size of the data set itself, not the size of the volume on which it resides. Our systems have many ordinary DSORG=PS data sets resident in the cylinder-managed portion of an EAV that has a total size of 262,668 cylinders. We don't need DSNTYPE=LARGE data sets to have a 'large' 3390 volume.
