In this case, the maximum number of extents for a VSAM data set is between 251 and 255 extents per component or between 251 and 255 extents per stripe for a striped component, depending upon the number of extents (1-5) allocated by DADSM per allocate/extend request.

Extend processing is ended for this data set.
