Hi
My requirement is to store records with record size of 172086 in RRDS vsam file.The thing i know is 'Spanned attribute is required for record size greater than 32761'.
I dont know what spanned parameter is & what it does.
Please let me know how to use spanned parameter?
If i can get any manual will really help.
Regards
Bijal |

| The VSAM Demystified redbook explicitly states that RRDS does not support spanned records. You cannot use record lengths greater than 32K so you will need to redesign your records. |

Will there be any problem if we write 32K byte record in RRDS vsam?

| As far as I know, there's no problem but I've never done it so I'm not sure. |

Hi
Spanned parameter helps to store record in more than one CI(control Interval).
But RRDS can't support this parameter. |
