The z/OS® DYNALLOC service (SVC 99) returned an error during the dynamic allocation of a temporary filter data set.

The COPY utility with the CONCURRENT option detected that the number of data sets to be processed exceeds the DFSMSdss DUMP command limitation of 255. The utility attempted to dynamically allocate a temporary filter data set for the object and generate a DFSMSdss DUMP command with the FILT option.
