Use End of Volume Support for Zero Secondary

Set sysparm PLSZSBC to (Y) to avoid D37-04 abends for non-VSAM data sets.

Business Value:

Non-VSAM data sets allocated with no secondary space cause D37-04 abends when their primary space is exhausted. By setting sysparm PLSZSEC to (Y), you avoid costly downtime.

Additional Considerations:

End of Volume (EOV) support for Zero Secondary gives your ASR the ability to give secondary space to data sets to prevent D37-04 abends.

More Information:

For more information about EOV support, see the section EOV Support for Zero Secondary in the chapter "Concepts and Facilities" in the User Guide.
