Yeah I can do that. Curious minds want to know. I think it's supposed to
work, I want to know what I'm doing wrong.

Why don't you leave it at 2000/1000 then? Someone (Phil?) mentioned that
4000/4000 was driving you over the 65K track limit. Try a smaller
secondary.

ok. Maybe we're onto something. Could that be why the primary allocation
is being reduced to 1 cyl, when the job fails. But what's puzzling is I
have DVC set to 10 in the DC so it should extend to the second volume.
When I change the allocation to something like 2000/1000 the job runs
fine. I've run this job and the dataset went to something like 30+
extents, 10,000+cyls across multiple mod-3's. We started having the
issues when we tried to use mod-9's.

It sounds like the dataset has used the 1st 4000 cylinders and needs to
go into a secondary extent.  Another 4000 cylinders takes the dataset
past the 65525 trks/volume limit for normal datasets.  You could try
using more volumes, for example UNIT=(SYSDA,2)
