Jake,
Have you reviewed the sizes for TIOT in the Init and Tuning Manual?
TIOT
Specifies the installation defaults for the task I/O table (TIOT).
SIZE(nn)
Specifies the size of the TIOT. The TIOT contains an entry for each DD
statement. The size of the TIOT controls how many DDs are allowed per jobstep.
By specifying an integer from 16 to 64 as the value of this parameter, the
installation controls the default DD allowance. Table 1 shows the relationship
between the size of the TIOT and the maximum number of DDs allowed.
Table 1. Relationship size of TIOT and maximum number of DDs allowed

single unit DD Allowed DD requests the
maximum number of units (59)

It looks better in this link

There are some examples to show you how things are calculated. But remember,
YMMV.
Also, if you do any internet searches, you will probably come across this link
