PERCENTUTILIZED specifies that DFSMSdss must stop allocating data sets to the target volumes when the allocated space reaches n percent of the total space on the target volume. The default value is 100. Specify more than one n if you have more than one target volume (for instance, a volume for overflow). If there are more target volumes than you have values in this keyword, the last value is used for the remaining target volumes. This keyword is used as a guide only and might not be precise for all situations.

If the output volume is an extended address volume and DFSMSdss is allocating non-VSAM or unsupported VSAM data sets, PERCENTUTILIZED specifies that DFSMSdss must stop allocating data sets to the target volumes when the allocated space reaches n percent of the track-managed space on the target volume.

Note:
  1. PERCENTUTILIZED is ignored when the target data set is preallocated or if you do not specify an output volume.
  2. PERCENTUTILIZED is not supported in an SMS environment.
