Juan,

To allocate a 10,000 cylinder data set for SMF use, the data set has to
be SMS managed and you will need to use DATACLASS and STORAGECLASS
parameters in your DEFINE CLUSTER control cards for IDCAMS. The
DATACLASS you use must specify the extended format option as either
preferred and/or required. The largest data set you can allocate without
using the extended format options is around 4300 cylinders.

These control statements actually worked - 

  DEFINE CLUSTER( -                           
      DATACLASS(MOD54) -                      
      STORAGECLASS(SMSML0) -                  
      BUFFERSPACE(1677604)     -              
      CONTROLINTERVALSIZE(26624)          -   
      CYLINDERS(7000) -                       
      NAME(NOAL.MANX.TEST) -                  
      NONINDEXED -                            
      RECORDSIZE(4086,32767) -                
      REUSE -                                 
      VOLUME(T04000) -                        
      SHAREOPTIONS(2) -                       
      SPANNED -                               
      SPEED -                                 
      ) -                                     
    DATA( -
