What's the maximum number of cylinders that can be allocated to a PDSE?
The number might be enormous nowadays.
AFAIK there is no practical limit. So the limit is volume size minus VTOC&Co.  
That means 1TB nowadays.
BTW: PDSE V1 has "not so big" limit for the member size. I experienced the 
limit when some huge PTF was to big to fit in PDSE, but still within PDS limits. Note: 
old PDS limited to 64k tracks, but no limit for member size.
My understanding is that the TTRZ that NOTE returns for a PDS limits the
data set and therefore any member to 2^16 tracks.  PDSE counts records in
24 bits, so for a sufficiently large LRECL, about 300 bytes, PDSE can
hold a larger member than PDS.

I don't intend to try the experiment.

SG24-6106 says:

Maximum architected size PDSE: 16 TB, PDS - no such limit
Maximum size of member PDSE: 15 728 69 records, PDS - no such limit
Maximum # of members PDSE: 522 236, PDS - no such limit
Maximum number of tracks per volume PDSE - unlimited, PDS - 64k

So, for PDS maximum size of member is 64k tracks minus some space for directory. For PDSE V1 maximum size of member depend on record size, for LRECL=80 it is 1 258 291 120 B, approx. 1,2 GB

Note, PDSE V2 has substatially larger limit: 2 146 435 071 records, so for LRECL=80 it means ~171 GB


BTW: Gil, you mentioned 2^16 tracks as the limit for PDS member. AFAIK it's very close to 64k tracks... ;-)
