Are there any issues with DB2 V8, Platinum and z/OS V1.9?

Our DBA group is indicating that since the z/OS V1.9 operating system went in, 
the Platinum loads have failed on space issues.

What they are seeing are:

My recommendation is to add more asterisks to the VOLUME statement.  We have at 
least 6 volumes that can handle the primary allocation.  And if I calculated it 
correctly it is 1650 Cylinders Primary and 500 cylinders secondary.  What I 
believe to be happening is that due to the one asterisk is causing the failure 
and if it had more it might make it.

My questions:

1)  Can you alter the define in Platinum to use more asterisks?
2)  Is there a change in z/OS V1.9 that makes storage allocation more difficult 
with DFSMS?  Any ACS or other changes needed to alter the behavior?
