Incorrect values taken for space quantities in VSAM creation

[riya_kottoor]

When we try to create a VSAM dataset using File Aid giving primary and secondary quantities as 2 and 2 respectively, VSAM is getting created with primary and secondary quantities as 3 and 3. Is it because of any settings in my system or is it an issue with File Aid which needs to be fixed?
