Resolution

 

To increase the amount of scratch available to the OLQBATCH job:

1. Add the following  SYSIDMS parameters to you the OLQBATCH JCL

SCRATCH_IN_STORAGE=ANY                              
SCRATCH_PRIMARY_EXTENT=20MB                        
SCRATCH_SECONDARY_EXTENT=20MB            

2. Ensure the OLQBATCH JOB has a REGION= size specified that is large enough to be able to accommodate (we recommend REGION=0M).

For example:

//OLQBATCH EXEC PGM=OLQBATCH,REGION=0M
          ...
//SYSIDMS  DD *                                       
SCRATCH_IN_STORAGE=ANY                               
SCRATCH_PRIMARY_EXTENT=20MB                          
SCRATCH_SECONDARY_EXTENT=20MB                        
DMCL=DMCL1900                                        
//SYSIPT   DD * 
...
