I found out the hard way (i.e. not reading this bit in the MANUAL:)
Many types of data sets are limited to 65 535 total tracks allocated on any
one volume, and if a greater number of tracks is required, this attempt to
create a data set will fail.
Data sets that are not limited to 65 535 total tracks allocated on any one
volume are:
* Large format sequential
* Extended-format sequential
* UNIX files
* PDSE
* VSAM
