Hello,
It is best to let the system determine the blksize.
You will not need to do any calculation. |

As Dick said, let the system determine the blocksize,
all you need to code is RECFM & LRECL and z/OS works out the correct blocksize for the media being written to. |

| And, this is applicable to both whether one allocates via 3.2 option of ISPF menu or creates a new DSN via an JCL. |

| You can calculate block size using TSO commands like TSO BLKSIZE or TSO BLK. This would depend on your installation. But goodway is, as suggsted above, let the system decide the Blksize. |
