Issue/Introduction

Attempting a "fresh" MICS complex install using ESDMLD1 job and the load-step INSTALL4 fails on internally-calculated DIRECTORY BLOCKS.

ex.

DSN0007E Stow failed for memberVCC6766# R15=12 ,R0=0.
DSN0008E (It means you ran out of directory blocks.)

Environment

Release : 14.3

Resolution

One option is to force the creation of a PDSE by specifying LIBRARY for the LIBDSNT parm.
ex.
// LIBDSNT=LIBRARY,          <-- OPT., ENTER LIBRARY FOR PDSE    * 

If this is not feasible, increase the space allocation of the IPCTEXT DD from its default value.

For example

//IPCTEXT  DD UNIT=&LIBUNIT,VOL=SER=&LIBVOL,DISP=(&DSP,CATLG,DELETE),    
//            STORCLAS=&LIBSTORC,DATACLAS=&LIBDATAC,MGMTCLAS=&LIBMGMTC,  
//            SPACE=(6160,(430,430,90),,,ROUND),DSNTYPE=&LIBDSNT,        
//            DCB=(DSORG=PO,RECFM=VB,LRECL=137,BLKSIZE=&BLOCK),           
//            DSN=&SPREFIX..&SMICS.PSP.PC.TEXT     

to

//IPCTEXT  DD UNIT=&LIBUNIT,VOL=SER=&LIBVOL,DISP=(&DSP,CATLG,DELETE),  
//            STORCLAS=&LIBSTORC,DATACLAS=&LIBDATAC,MGMTCLAS=&LIBMGMTC,
//            SPACE=(6160,(1500,1500,500),,,ROUND),DSNTYPE=&LIBDSNT,   
//            DCB=(DSORG=PO,RECFM=VB,LRECL=137,BLKSIZE=&BLOCK),
