EAS non-eligible data sets<br />

An EAS-ineligible data set is a data set that may exist on an EAV but is not eligible to have<br />

extents (through Create or Extend) in the cylinder-managed space. The exceptions to EAS<br />

eligibility are as follows:<br />

► Catalogs (BCS (basic catalog structure) and VVDS (VSAM volume data set)<br />

► VTOC (continues to be restricted to within the first 64 K-1 tracks)<br />

► VTOC index<br />

► Page data sets<br />

► VSAM data sets with imbed or keyrange attributes<br />

► VSAM data sets with incompatible CA sizes<br />

Note: In a future release, various <strong>of</strong> these data sets may become EAS-eligible. All data set<br />

types, even those listed here, can be allocated in the track-managed space on a device<br />

with cylinder-managed space on an EAV volume. Eligible EAS data sets can be created<br />

and extended anywhere on an EAV. Data sets that are not eligible for EAS processing can<br />

only be created or extended in the track-managed portions <strong>of</strong> the volume.<br />
