Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All DB2 10 for z/OS and all DB2 11 for z/OS * * users running z/OS V2R2. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Support z/OS V2R2 DFSMS new generation * * data group (GDG) format that allows up * * to 999 active GDSs. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** The TEMPLATE utility control statement is modified to support EXTENDED GDGs, which are available in z/OS V2R2. When running on z/OS V2R2 the maximum operand value for the GDGLIMIT keyword is 999, instead of 255 as it is when running on previous releases of z/OS. The Utility Guide and Reference is modified under the TEMPLATE GDGLIMIT keyword to read: GDGLIMIT (integer) Specifies the number of entries that are to be created in a GDG base if a GDG DSN is specified and the base does not already exist. If a GDG base does not already exist and you do not want to define one, specify a GDGLIMIT of zero (0). | The default value is 99. The minimum value is 0. | The maximum value depends on the z/OS release on which | the subsystem is being executed. Prior to z/OS V2R2, the | maximum value is 255. Beginning with z/OS V2R2, the | maximum value is 999. To use values greater than 255, | "GDGEXTENDED(YES)" must be specified in | SYS1.PARMLIB(IGGCATxx). Otherwise, values above 255 will | fail during allocation.
Problem conclusion
Temporary fix
Comments
