The 5.3 install allowed me to format page and spool as 3390 mod 9 devices

I did the initial install of z/VM, and discovered that even though I used a
3390 mod 27 for my 530pag and 530spl volumes, only the first 10016 cylinders
were used. Extending the paging to the end of the real volume isn¹t a
problem, but can I extend the spool space without trashing the contents of
