Why did you not post anything for us to help you -- for example, seeing the actual JCL?

What value did you use for the WORK= parameter of your IEBCOPY EXEC? If you did not specify one, then merely increasing REGION size on the EXEC will do NOTHING to alleviate this issue -- you MUST specify WORK= according to the manual. And if you did not specify SYSUT3 or SYSUT4 in your JCL, they could help resolve the problem -- another reason you should have posted your JCL.
