Mike, If you allow the system to allocate/create the VVDS dataset, that is correct, The OP did not say how they create volumes so I am not sure if they let the system allocate the file or if they allocate the file after INIT a pack. I prefer to do the DEFINE VVDS after I init a volume. That way I control the size of the file.
