I can't answer your question. Especially since I don't know what "various ways" that you tried. But I did have a possible thought you might want to try. I assume the zFS container is not "mounted" at some UNIX mount point. So, how about doing trying this:
1) Rename zFS data set (CLUSTER & DATA) to a new name. 2) Allocate a new zFS data set with the old name (CLUSTER & DATA) name, but with the proper DATACLAS to be extended. This is really just a VSAM LINEAR data set. 3) REPRO from the old zFS data set to the new zFS data set. 4) try to mount the new zFS data set, which has the old name, at the proper UNIX mount point. 5) Profit! (sorry, weird \. - slashdot.org - reference). On Tue, Jun 17, 2014 at 6:35 AM, Peter Hunkeler <p...@gmx.ch> wrote: > A large zFS data set was allocated w/o a dataclass.
