"IEF506I - The system could not find enough storage volumes to satisfy the 
request. An attempt will be made to allocate the data set to a private volume."

My SMS exposure is limited albeit I can say that the SMS config that is in play 
on this sandbox LPAR is barebones. 

There are sufficient volumes mounted STORAGE.   The job is a BR14 asking for a 
1 cyl dset allocation using a new esoteric called WORK.  i.e. UNIT=WORK.   Job 
receives "IEF238D - Reply [DEVICE NAME] or 'CANCEL'".  If I create an identical 
esoteric called WRK w/ the exact same devices, it works.   So UNIT=WRK works 
albeit UNIT=WORK fails.  i.e. WRK and WORK esoterics are defined exactly the 
same. 

I have read other posts in the archive where SMS is activated and esoterics go 
sideways however, there was not sufficient resolution information.

Any ideas?
