Do you need to specify FBA rather than FA? -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of John Norgauer Sent: Friday, May 04, 2012 3:44 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Old timer question
We have a dataset that is as follows: Management class . . :,**None**, ,,Allocated cylinders :,114 Storage class . . . :,**None**, ,,Allocated extents . :,4 ,Volume serial . . . :,SGP103, , ,,, , ,Device type . . . . :,3390 , ,, , Data class . . . . . :,**None**, ,, , ,Organization . . . :,PS , ,Current Utilization, ,Record format . . . :,FA , ,,Used cylinders . . :,80 ,Record length . . . :,133 , ,,Used extents . . . :,1 ,Block size . . . . :,133 , ,,, , ,1st extent cylinders:,90 ,,, , ,Secondary cylinders :,8 ,,Dates, ,Data set name type :, , ,,Creation date . . . :,1996/08/01 ,SMS Compressible. . :,NO , ,,Referenced date . . :,2012/05/04 Truly an ugly dataset... 133 by 133 and FA recform created in the 1996. I wanted to re-block the dataset for obvious reasons. I thought that 13300 blksize would work but DFP did not like that size. it said " Record length is inconsistent with block size for this record format" What would be a good blksize?
