Frank,
Here is information contained in APAR PN78840 which basically tells you how
to put your database and recovery log
names into file rather than coding them on the parm where your limited to
100 chars. I assume this still works for version
3 servers. Also, substitute /FORMAT for /INSTALL coded on the parm in the
sample JCL below since that changed with
V3.
Hope this helps,

* PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: *
Allow reading log and db volumes from a file during install.
****************************************************************
* RECOMMENDATION: *
apply fixing ptf when available
****************************************************************
Fully qualified data set names may be long. The PARM field
is limited to 100 characters. Customers would like to
provide files containing the candidate recovery log and data-
base volume names when installing the server.
PROBLEM CONCLUSION:
The new syntax for installing an ADSM MVS server is:
where:
nLog the number of log volume names that follow, or
are in logFilename
log1 ... logn the names of candidate log volumes. They
must be VSAM linear data sets that have been
formatted using the dsmfmt utility
logFilename the file that contains a list of candidate
log volumes
nDb the number of database volume names that
follow, or are in dbFilename
db1 ... dbn the names of candidate database volumes
dbFilename the file that contains a list of candidate
database volumes
Also note that from Version 2, the server does not format VSAM
linear data sets as part of the "install" or "define" commands.
Allocating and formatting the data sets must be done outside of
the server. asamplib members are provided to help.
An example of using the FILE: option in ANRINST.ASAMPLIB follows
//SERVER EXEC PGM=DSMSERV,DYNAMNBR=300,
// PARM='/INSTALL 1 FILE:''LOG.FILE'' 1 FILE:''DB.FILE'''
where LOG.FILE contains:
ADSM.RCVRYLOG
and DB.FILE contains:
ADSM.DB1
