You're quite welcome. I also belatedly dug into my old JCL data set and found this:

  DEFINE CLUSTER -
   (NAME(SYS1.STGINDEX) -
   KEYS(12 8) -
   CYLINDERS(1) -
   BUFFERSPACE(20480) -
   RECORDSIZE(2041 2041) -
   VOLUME(VOLSER) -
   REUSE) -
  DATA (CONTROLINTERVALSIZE(2048))

I have absolutely NO idea whether the values above are appropriate or recommended today, if indeed they were ever recommended. In the MVS/XA timeframe, however, I believe they worked. I likely lifted this from a CBIPO at the time (smile).

John,

Thank you for a pertinent, clear and precise answer to my query. I am
quite content to use VIODSN=IGNORE but, because STGINDEX is still utilized at
many of the shops I visit, I was looking for (and unable to find) the
documentation.
