Sample job to do this allocation:

//ALLOCDS  EXEC PGM=IEFBR14                                    

//CBAVXML  DD DISP=(,CATLG),                                   

//         DSN=TSSHLQ.CBAVXML,                                

//         RECFM=VB,LRECL=512,BLKSIZE=27998,                   

//         DSNTYPE=PDS,                                        

//         SPACE=(TRK,(52,5,50))                               

/*
