  The DB2 Administration Tool for z/OS fails with abendb37 or
  similar abendx37 symptom when running WSL in batch with a
  large removable media ( aka TAPE/CART ) input file.  The
  estimation of space for file ADBIN is not correct when SYSIN
  is large and on the TAPE.
  

Problem conclusion

• Problem has been resolved.  For the large input file, please
  note that users need to enlarge the space of DD SYSPRINT,
  ADBDIAG and ADBRPTSM in the step which invokes ADBTEP2 to
  avoid B37 errors since there is large data output to these
  files.
