Some of jobs are running with space violations (reported by stopx37 report) at my shop. Stopx37 tool dynamically allocates the spaces at run time and prevent the jobs from abend. As a permanent fix I have to increase the SPACE parameter in JCL and implement in Production.
After increasing the SPACE parameter, while I am testing the job in Dev region I am looking for similar SPACE violation each time when I execute the job. If SPACE violation occurs, I will be increasing the SPACE parameter and test it again until the job doesnot get SPACE violation (SPACVOLA)
I will run the job by increasing the space parameter until I will not get the below message
IEF233A M 0C41,E50223,,A12457Q,SORT,AFRGT.QDPDBRUN.POSFLE.G0618V00
SVM4000I A12457Q, STEP01.SORT, SORTOUT, ATTEMPTING SPACVOLA FOR ANN2107.PZPOSRU
SVM4400I VOLUME ADDED - OLD VOLUME DMAX14, NEW VOLUME SMS
SVM4000I A12457Q, STEP01.SORT, SORTOUT, ATTEMPTING SPACVOLA FOR A12457.QDPOSRU
SVM4400I VOLUME ADDED - OLD VOLUME DMAX01, NEW VOLUME SMS
Now the issue is, There is a dataset which has huge data in production, STOPX37 dynamically allocates the space and preventing the space abend daily. When I try to increase the space parameter inorder to give permanent fix, I couldn't do it. The z/OS says,
GD17277I THERE ARE (61) CANDIDATE VOLUMES OF WHICH (57) ARE ENABLED OR QUIESCED
GD17290I THERE WERE 2 CANDIDATE STORAGE GROUPS OF WHICH THE FIRST 2
ERE ELIGIBLE FOR VOLUME SELECTION.
HE CANDIDATE STORAGE GROUPS WERE:SMSXLRG OVFLD1
GD17279I 4 VOLUMES WERE REJECTED BECAUSE THEY WERE NOT ONLINE
GD17279I 4 VOLUMES WERE REJECTED BECAUSE THE UCB WAS NOT AVAILABLE
GD17279I 57 VOLUMES WERE REJECTED BECAUSE OF A DADSM FAILURE (044E0097)
EF272I ANN2107Q SORT STEP01 - STEP WAS NOT EXECUTED.
Is there anyway that I can correct the issue before I go to SMS admin.
