Issue/Introduction

The Database Management Solutions for Db2 for z/OS Post Install Create (ssid0001) executes the ssidDDL member which is created when the Compare (ssid0000) is generated.

Prior to the reorg for PTITSMG1(RCM TS), the following template was used to allocate the .COPY:

TEMPLATE PTICOPY  DSN '<hlq>.&DB..&SN..U9323.S&PA..COPY' 
         UNIT     CART    

                                

This caused the following messages:

 DSNU1015I   140 09:48:52.58 DSNUGDYN - ERROR ALLOCATING DATA SET
             DSN=<hlq>.PTDB.PTITSMG2.U9323.S00001.COPY
 CODE=X'02700000'

IKJ56241I REQUEST REQUIRES MORE NON-SMS MANAGED VOLUMES THAN ARE ELIGIBLE

Resolution

The solution was to change the TEMPLATE statement to specify SPACE CYLS instead of UNIT CART.
The esoteric is generated based on the NACTIVE number. In this example for TS PTITSMG2 the value was 177750 which is large.
The job ran successfully after changing to disk (SPACE CYLS).
