Use the Data Set Allocation Parameters option to update
parameters controlling allocation and cataloging of private
(or user level) data sets created by the online facilities.
These parameters include the amount of disk space allocated
for the data set and the unit/volume specification for data
set allocation. You can also modify the data set name
assigned to selected data sets.
When you select the Data Set Allocation Parameters option, a
scrollable list of data sets is displayed. The most commonly
modified data set allocation parameters are displayed on this
panel. If you need to change additional parameters, you can
select a row from this scrollable display to access a fixed
panel containing all of the data set allocation parameters.
Warning: If you change the data set name high level
qualifier or the data set name suffix for the user ISPF
tables data set (TABLES), current users will be unable to
access specifications they saved prior to these parameter
changes.
DATA ENTRY INSTRUCTIONS
This panel presents a scrollable list of DASD data sets the
online facility may allocate. Each row of the display
describes one data set. Descriptions of the display columns
follow.
Data Set - Identifies the data set to which the parameters
apply. Data Set cannot be changed.
Data Set Name Suffix - Required for permanent MICF user data
sets. Must be blank for temporary data sets and for MICF
production reporting data sets (PCATALOG, PIXFOUT, PMWFPDS,
PMWFSAS, PMICSLOG, and PREPORT). The user data set prefix
specified for your data center is appended to this parameter
in order to generate the data set name. Some data set
parameter entries apply to a generic set of data sets (for
example, PRINT applies to the print inquiry output staging
data sets) and are allocated with data set names containing a
logical version or cycle number. Include one or more
asterisks in the data set name suffix for these data sets to
indicate where the logical version number should appear.
The next four parameters define the DASD space allocation.
Typ (space units) - Required. BLK, CYL, or TRK. The type of
space allocation for this data set. May be abbreviated as B,
C, or T.
Prim (primary quantity) - Required. 1-99999. The initial
amount of space to be allocated (that is, the number of
cylinders, tracks, or blocks).
2nd (secondary quantity) - Optional. 0-99999. The amount of
space to be allocated when the space specified in primary
quantity has been used. Leave this parameter blank or enter
0 to limit the data set to the primary quantity.
Dir (directory blocks) - Required if data set organization is
PO or POU. 1-999. The number of directory blocks to be
allocated. Leave this parameter blank if data set
organization is PS, PSU, DA, or DAU.
Generic unit - Optional. 1-8 characters. The DASD unit name
specification for data set allocation. This parameter should
match the unit specification you normally use when allocating
data sets. It may be optional at your site, but when
specified will usually have a value such as SYSDA. Refer to
your data center standards for valid values.
The following three columns can be viewed and/or updated by
scrolling right:
Storage Class
The 1-8 character name specification for Storage Class
(STORCLAS) to be used for data set allocation. Refer to
your data center standards for valid values.
Data Class
The 1-8 character name specification for Data Class
(DATACLAS) to be used for data set allocation. Refer to
your data center standards for valid values.
Management Class
The 1-8 character name specification for Management Class
(MGMTCLAS) to be used for data set allocation. Refer to
your data center standards for valid values.

The panel above is the resulting display from the RIGHT
command shown on the previous panel. From this scrollable
display you can select a row as shown above using the S line
command. This changes your display window to a fixed panel
containing all of the data set allocation parameters for a
single row from the scrollable display. A sample of the
fixed panel is shown below, illustrating that you can still
scroll up and down, as well as locate (L) on data set value.

other online facility processes. This panel displays
allocation parameters for one data set. The data set
identifier and title are displayed at the top of the panel.
You can use the UP and DOWN commands to display data set
allocation parameters for other data sets.
DATA ENTRY INSTRUCTIONS
DSN prefix - This field displays the user data set name
prefix defined for your data center. DSN prefix cannot be
changed.
DSN suffix - Required for permanent MICF user data sets.
Must be blank for temporary data sets and for MICF production
reporting data sets (PCATALOG, PIXFOUT, PMWFPDS, PMWFSAS,
PMICSLOG, and PREPORT). The user data set prefix specified
for your data center is appended to this parameter in order
to generate the data set name. Some data set parameter
entries apply to a generic set of data sets (for example,
PRINT applies to the print inquiry output staging data sets)
and are allocated with data set names containing a logical
version or cycle number. Include one or more asterisks in
the data set name suffix for these data sets to indicate
where the logical version number should appear.
Space units - Required. BLK, CYL, or TRK. The type of space
allocation for this data set. May be abbreviated as B, C, or
T.
Primary quantity - Required. 1-99999. The initial amount of
space to be allocated (that is, the number of cylinders,
tracks, or blocks).
Secondary quantity - Optional. 0-99999. The amount of space
to be allocated when the space specified in Primary quantity
has been used. Leave this parameter blank or enter 0 to
limit the data set to the primary quantity.
Directory blocks - Required if data set organization is PO or
POU. 1-999. The number of directory blocks to be allocated.
Leave this parameter blank if data set organization is PS,
PSU, DA, or DAU.
Round block alloc. - Required. Specify YES (or Y) to round
block allocation to cylinders. Specify NO (or N) for block
allocation without rounding. Must be NO when Space units is
CYL or TRK.
Block size - Required. 1 to 32760. The size of the physical
blocks of records for this data set. If Record format is F,
Block size must equal Record length. If Record format is FB
or FS, Block size must be divisible by Record length. If
Record format is V, Block size must be equal to Record length
plus four. If Record format is VB, Block size minus four
must be greater than or equal to Record length.
Record length - The length of the records for this data set.
If Record format is V, this is the maximum record length.
Record length cannot be changed.
Volume serial - Optional. 1-6 character volume serial
number. To allocate this data set on a specific DASD volume,
specify this parameter. The volume serial number may be
optional or defaulted at your site, or in some cases it may
be implicitly assigned based on the specification of the unit
name.
Data set org. - The type of data set being allocated (for
example, PO, PS, DA, etc.). Data set org cannot be changed.
Expiration date - Optional. Data set expiration date in
yyddd or yyyy/ddd format. (Note that yyyy/ddd format is
supported with MVS/XA and above). Specify this parameter if
your data center requires expiration dates for DASD data set
allocations.
Record format - The format of records in this data set.
Record format cannot be changed.
Retention period - Optional. Must be blank when Expiration
date is specified. 1-99999. The number of days the data set
should be kept before being deleted by your data center's
DASD management routines.
Generic unit - Optional. 1-8 characters. The DASD unit name
specification for data set allocation. This parameter should
match the unit specification you normally use when allocating
data sets. It may be optional at your site, but when
specified will usually have a value such as SYSDA. Refer to
your data center standards for valid values.
Storage Class - Optional. 1-8 characters. The Storage Class
name specification for data set allocation. Refer to your
data center standards for valid values.
Data Class - Optional. 1-8 characters. The Data Class
name specification for data set allocation. Refer to your
data center standards for valid values.
Management Class - Optional. 1-8 characters. The Management
Class name specification for data set allocation. Refer to
your data center standards for valid values.
Additional allocation parameters - Optional. Additional
parameters your data center requires to allocate new DASD
data sets. Specify these parameters in JCL statement format,
separated by commas. Two data entry fields are provided:
DCB parameters - DCB subparameters (for example, OPTCD=W)
Other parameters - Other data set allocation constructs, for
example, VOL=REF=dsname.
