Hi,
I am trying to compile a code using XP Editor options.
I got a return code of 8.
The error is
"PCSIO 010-S NO MORE AVAILABLE EXTENTS ON DDIO FILE. "

I deleted the DDIO file, and again recreated it. But it is still not working.
Can someone please let me know why this error is coming?

Thanks.

Try increasing the number of extents when you allocate the file. The parameter is EXTENTS=

If you are not sure what the current allocation is, use the DIRX parameter of CWDDSUTL to list it.

ayush,

As bithead suggested you can try increasing the allocation. If that doesn't work then there is another trick you can use.

1. On the XPEDITER panel choose the option UTILITIES (option 5)
2. On the next panle choose the option DDIO FILE FACILITY (option 3)
3. Your DDIO file name should be already there, if not provide a name to create the DDIO file.
4. tab over the left of the DDio file name and type C and press enter.

5. On the next panel change the PREPARATION mode to EDITJCL. It is the second parameter after the DDIO file name.

6. Tab down to the bottom and increase primary and secondary extents and have the space units in cylinders and press enter

7.now you are presented with a JCL which you can submit. The job has 2 steps. One is ALLOC & UITLITY.

8. In the UTILITY STEP( the second step) , there is sysin parm for //ABNLPARM DD *

9. In that change the GC parm. I think the default is 1 , but you can change it to 5.

10. Now just SUB the JOB. Hope fully this will solve your problem

Hope this helps...

Cheers
