Possibly, i misunderstand. . . If you do this, every insert or delete after this requires that the trailer record be updated or the number will be incorrect. If this file is very active (adds/deletes), there will be performance problems getting control of the trailer record to update it.
What business burpose will be served by getting the number of records into the vsam file into an online cics program? If we know what you want to accomplish (rather than the number of records), we may be able to offer suggestions. |
