I don't think there is a way to circunvent it. You can see with your storage administrator to change this database to a Dataclass with compression. It will short the database size, but you still have the 59 volumes limit. You have to evaluate the performance too. Atenciosamente / Regards / Salu

SYSMDUMP in DB2 SP WLM

We need to collect a SYSMDUMP from a DB2 SP WLM task. The SYSMDUMP DD needs to point to a disk data set. There can be multiple instances of the DB2 SP WLM task running concurrently, so there is a need to uniquely name the data set for the SYSMDUMP. GDGs don't work because there is an enqueue
