Do i need to consider about something before do it ?
How many LPARs share the SYS1.PROCLIB data set? Is SYS1.PROCLIB indirectly cataloged? Are you planning on bringing JES2 / JES3 down before redefining SYS1.PROCLIB? If not, how will you prevent JES problems? From APAR II04595:
Quote:
THE CUSTOMER'S PROBLEM STARTS WHEN HE PREPARES FOR THE IPL
BY BRINGING JES2 DOWN GRACEFULLY. THE CLOSE FUNCTION PERFORMED
AT END OF JOB WILL CAUSE INDIRECTLY CATALOGED NONVSAM DATASETS
(PROCLIB) TO BE RECATALOGED. WHEN THE DATASET WAS OPENED, NO
TTR WAS PASSED TO OPEN, SO A FULL VTOC SEARCH WAS DONE AND THE
TTR OF THE FORMAT 1 DSCB (FORMAT1) WAS SAVED IN THE JFCB. IN
ADDITION, AN INDICATOR WAS TURNED ON IN THE JFCB TO TELL
TERMINATION TO RECATALOG THE DATASET. TERMINATION DOES A
CAMLST RECATALOG WHICH GETS TRANSLATED TO A VSAM/ICF CATALOG
PARMLIST ALTER NEWNAME WITH THE NEW AND OLD NAME THE SAME, BUT
USING THE TTR PASSED IN THE VOLUME LIST.
SO THE CATALOG-DIRECT WHICH WAS DONE EARLIER IS UNDONE
AND THE DATASET IS NOW CATALOGED DIRECTLY TO THE VOLUME WHERE
IT ORIGINALLY RESIDED. WHEN JES2 IS RESTARTED, THE OPEN FAILURE
OCCURS TRYING TOP OPEN THE MOVED DATASET.

If the lack of space (which is what I assume you meant by "kack of space" in your post) is no secondary allocation, you can override the secondary allocation in a job and let it go into secondary extents. If the lack of space is no directory space, and you have PDS86 installed at your site, use that to add directory space to the data set. If you feel you have no choice but to move SYS1.PROCLIB to another volume to give it more space, be aware that you could have problems from doing so and I would HIGHLY recommend an IPL immediately after SYS1.PROCLIB has been moved.
