Look in ALLOCxx as kindly suggested by Roger Lowe.
If you know what SMS routines were used, look at their definitions.

The only storage that persists past the life of an address space is common

You need storage in CSA or SQA or above the bar common.

There is no "dummy LPAR". Millicode periodically executes
a loop to waste some time. The logical processor remains dispatched
to the physical processor while that is happening, so the wasted time is
included in the CPU Timer for the logical processor, and thus is charged
to the dispatched work
It is my understanding that the ALLOC should not step if you have SPACE coded
in your JCL. By default you should get your space request, though it might be
in more than one extent (up to 5). Now if you have some 3rd party software
installed it might be stepping in to prevent the initial X37 ab
There are ACS options:
ACS routines can assign a Dataclass with Space Atributes plus the option that
it will override space in JCL, even for non-SMS managed datasets.
For SMS managed datasets, the DataClass' Space Constraint Relief options can

Dummy LPAR or milicode waste the cycles - nevermind. My point was there

As I recall it required you to enter the ORDER number for that to work. So to
run it as a second step would require that you scrape the report from the first
step to get the order number so you can do the receive.

Acquire the storage first, *then* define the name/token pair.

Quite simple. Convert the numeric data to M10 or use an edit mask to
replace the leading zeros with spaces. And then use the function SQZ to
