I came across the below statement in DFSORT reference material.
The length of the INREC/OUTREC record (reformatted length) is not used to determine the LRECL of SORTOUT. If not specified in the DSCB or DD statement, the value for SORTOUT LRECL is determined in the usual way (that is, from the L3 value or SORTIN LRECL). If the reformatted length does not match the SORTOUT LRECL, padding/truncation of the output records is performed, if possible.
What is this L3 value and how is it determined? |

Thanks, I knew what L3 was for, but since I usually search the index and the z/OS index is a bit lacking, I missed it. |
