Hi Greg,
If someone uses BLKSIZE=32760, isn't it true that only one physical
block fits on a (emulated) 3390 track, thereby definitely wasting

Not for OBJECT modules. The Binder calls a routine to determine the
remaining space on the track, round down to the next multplie of 1k,
and writes no more than that amount on that track.

Neither BINDER nor the Linkage Editor write object modules, although they read
them.
Both fill the track for load modules, and block size is meaningless for
bprogram objects.

When IEBCOPY reblocks a module, does it leave any audit trail? That
might be of interest in case of the OP's problem.

When I scp or sftp the tar ball to the Linux system it complains that it
doesn't recognize the file as an archive:
$ tar -tf inc.tar
tar: This does not look like a tar archive
tar: Skipping to next header
tar: Exiting with failure status due to previous errors
I had created it with tar -cf inc.
Simple question. Did you ftp in binary mode?

I use scp which I assumed defaulted to binary. So I did it with sftp and
explicitly used binary and all was good. The scp/sftp utility we wrote for CMS
defaults to binary so I had made an incorrect assumption. Thanks all for the

Many will tell you that scp itself is not-good and that you should use
sftp instead.
Perhaps z/OS's scp is worse than scp by itself.

You compile the program for ARCH(8). IBM guarantees that it will run on a z10

behave on a z114 exactly as though it were running on a z10.
