Larry, please open a PMR so that we can look at your problem in more 
detail.  This usually shows up when you've installed into SFS - the memory 
occupied by file descriptors (FSTs) in the accessed directories is bumping 
into the memory used by CMSBAM.

A possible workaround:  Immediately after IPL CMS and ACC (NOPROF, try 
SEGMENT RESERVE CMSBAM.  Then, right before you issue the VMFBLD for the 
segment, issue SEGMENT RELEASE CMSBAM.  And add the NOSETUP option to 
VMFBLD.  E.g.

segment release cmsbam
Ready;
vmfbld list segbld esasegs dosbam blddata (all nosetup

No guarantees, but worth a try.
