For system assignment of space: SPACE= ({TRK,}(primary-qty[,second-qty][,directory])[,RLSE][,CONTIG][,ROUND])
({CYL,} [, ] [, ][,MXIG ]
({blklgth,} [,ALX ]
({reclgth,} [, ]
To request specific tracks: SPACE= (ABSTR,(primary-qty,address [,directory])
To request only directory
space: SPACE=(,(,,directory))

- You can omit the parentheses around the primary quantity if you
do not code secondary, directory, or index quantities. For example,
SPACE=(TRK,20,RLSE,CONTIG) or SPACE=(TRK,20).
Note
that if you omit these inner parentheses, you also omit the commas
within them.

- All the subparameters are positional. Code a comma to indicate
an omitted subparameter if any others follow. Thus:
- If you code primary and directory quantities and
omit a secondary quantity, code a comma inside the inner parentheses
to indicate the omission. For example, SPACE=(TRK,(20,,2)).
- If you omit RLSE but code a following subparameter, code a comma
to indicate the omission. For example, SPACE=(TRK,(20,10),,CONTIG)
or SPACE=(TRK,20,,CONTIG).
- If you omit CONTIG, MXIG, or ALX and ROUND follows, code a comma
to indicate the omission. For example, SPACE=(400,30,RLSE,,ROUND).
If you also omit RLSE, this example becomes SPACE=(400,30,,,ROUND).
