The Output File [Outfile] support for STRSQL is the same as for
RUNQRY OUTTYPE(*OUTFILE) support. There is no control of the ALLOCATE()
option in either case; the file should always be created with
ALLOCATE(*NO). There may be control to the SIZE(), but if so, probably
accidentally, as the feature that exists to enable any control of SIZE()
was created for the Query/400 *OUTFILE support. Additionally
ALLOCATE(*YES) is mutually exclusive from SIZE(*NOMAX); the default for
the created file is SIZE(*NOMAX), so an accidental ALLOCATE(*YES) should
have failed the create due to that consistency check. The first and
second element of SIZE() influence the initial and additional extent
sizes, irrespective of the ALLOCATE().
However I believe the real issue is not so complicated. That
instead, there was missing information. Having only the activity
statistics is not enough to comment intelligently on what might have
transpired. For example the field definitions, variable data, reuse
attribute, SIZE attribute, record length and others may play a role in
actual dataspace size.
