Re: System Dumps and SMS allocation fails
Well the problem has been solved, thanks to all for their thoughts. I removed the space and DCB attributes, except for the DSNTYPE=LARGE from the dataclass and all is well. Not quite sure why, but whatever works.

Re: System Dumps and SMS allocation fails
From an SMS point of view all is well. Allocation works has the correct attributes and is placed on the correct volume. At 05:43 PM 2/13/2012, you wrote: Ken - Scratch what I said. It appears it tried to allocate into SGDUMP first and failed. What are the volumes in SGDUMP? What are their statuses? ENABLED? QUINEW? DISNEW?

System Dumps and SMS allocation fails
First this is a long entry, but I wanted to have all the information here in hope that someone would have the answer. We are trying to convert to using SMS managed volumes for our system dumps since we need the LARGE attribute for our large DB2 dumps. But something is preventing the dumps from allocation when MVS tries to make the allocation. What? HELP! I can make the allocation find from 3.2 or even IEFBR14 in batch. Correct volumes correct size all is well, but MVS still fails when it tries. (using just the dataclas, storclas and mgmtclas in the allocation) SMS volumes are 2 empty mod-9 (other than VTOC, VTOCIX and VVDS).with largest free space as 9,993 cylinders on each one. Here are the messages we receive when a dump occurs. All standard messages, other than I cannot explain the DO NOT HAVE SUFFICIENT SPACE message. Plus the messages after that are odd! The IEF196I IGD100I message. The address D913 is for volume SYX5D1 (one of the non SMS volumes). The dataclass is also not the one in parmlib. Maybe this is just a sequence error in that this message should appear after the WILL TRY VOLUME ALLOCATION.

Re: System Dumps and SMS allocation fails
When allocating files via SMS, the SMS attributes then either have to be explicitly assigned or allowed to be assigned. You mention that the DC is one that is not listed in the parmlib and the volume is a non-sms volume; thus, check your ACS routines for the SMS allocation of these files.

Re: System Dumps and SMS allocation fails
I think you miss understood the comment. The message STORCLAS (SCDUMP) MGMTCLAS (MCDUMP) DATACLAS (DCDUMP) STORGRPS (SGDUMP ) has all of the correct attributes.
