I have a program for which there are three outputs :

Code:

1.
SYSOUT   DD DSN=T4.DFSS.RA.HISTSTAT.BULK,
            DISP=(NEW,CATLG,CATLG),       
            SPACE=(TRK,(10,1),RLSE),     
            DCB=(RECFM=FB,LRECL=80,BLKSIZE=0) 
 
2.

Output2  DD DSN=T4.DFSS.*****2,   
            DISP=(NEW,CATLG,CATLG),                     
            UNIT=(TAPE,,DEFER),LABEL=(1,SL,EXPDT=99000),
            DCB=(RECFM=FB,LRECL=1059,BLKSIZE=0)               
3.
                       
Output3  DD DSN=T4.DFSS.****3,         
            DISP=(NEW,CATLG,CATLG),                     
            SPACE=(TRK,(500,50),RLSE),                   
            DCB=(RECFM=FB,LRECL=80,BLKSIZE=0)   




The problem is I am getting a SB37 abend while executing the program , The abend information as below.

Code:

IEC030I B37-04,IFG0554A,T3IO4ILP,STEP0030,SYSOUT,DC25,UU7107,T4.DFSS.RA.HISTSTAT.BULK
IEA995I SYMPTOM DUMP OUTPUT                                                     
SYSTEM COMPLETION CODE=B37  REASON CODE=00000004                               


Actually the First output file has very less numberof records to be written into , only 4 records.

can't it be able to allocate a TRKS of size (10 + (1 * 15)) = 25 TRKS.

From the previous posts i understood that if at that moment 25 TRKS are not able to alloted , it will fail ..but for 25 TRKS???

can anyone throw some light on this.....

Mainframemouli,

No you are writting more than 4 records. Check the pgm logic and see if you are writting more records. A single track is quite sufficient to write 4 80 byte records.

Your pgm must be in a loop writting the same records over and over and hence the space abend.

if the DASD was full, would have it allocated anything. the poster has not bothered to tell us the attributes of the file after execution.

also, because there was no volumn ser no given, would not file management (don't know if it is sms or not) just seek dasd where there was room.

SB37 normally indicates that the allocated space for a file has been used up.

If you are only creating 4 80 byte records (3200 bytes) why are you allocating c. 300000 bytes? That is sloppy JCL coding.

I know people who allocate a multi-volume dataclass to take a single-record control file. I blame the parents. Mr. Green
