I'm not sure of this with current levels of JES/ MVS, however, back with MVS/SP
an prior systems, DSCB with zero secondary space can NEVER be extended.
Original DD allocations like SPACE=(Quantum,(Pri,Sec,1)), allow subsequent JCL
overrides of SPACE=(Quantum,(Pri,Sec,NN)), while DSCBs with secondarys of zero
will ignore the JCL override attempt.

I concur that the symptoms match that of a new extent being taken when updated,
and not seen when referenced.  This is a behavior that reflects the underpinning
OS/360 PCP/MFT/MVT origins of the system.
