when i read the ibm doc, i can see the maximum number of extent for a dasd multivolume is 255 :
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocente ... ts_156.htm
Space for a disk data set is assigned in extents. An extent is a contiguous number of disk drive tracks, cylinders, or blocks. Data sets can increase in extents as they grow. Older types of data sets can have up to 16 extents per volume. Newer types of data sets can have up to 128 extents per volume or 255 extents total on multiple volumes.
Actually i have a dataset with 479 extent!! I thouth i t was not possible...

I saw the dataclass and the volcount is 30...
May be changing it is a good solution because the dataset YCVNJ.JKHG.HULKJHGF.GHH.GHT is in 30 volume (not more...)
I could try with 59 (it's the maximum) :
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocente ... xddvol.htm
Volume Count for System-Managed DASD Data Sets: You cannot specify a volume count for an existing system-managed DASD data set. (If you do, the system will ignore it.) When you create a new system-managed DASD data set, the volume count defined in the data class may be overridden by using the volume-count subparameter. However, if the volume-count subparameter specifies a value greater then 59, the system will set the volume count to a maximum of 59. The maximum volume count for a VSAM or System-Managed DASD data set is 59.
If you have an other idea...
Thank's for your help.
