Hi all,
I am copying a VB file, in which LRECL=32,756 and BLKSIZE=32,760. One main thing is I have to copy the RDW(first 4 bytes as well).
So the sort card written is
| Code: |
SORT FIELDS=COPY
OUTFIL FILES=01, OUTREC=(1:1,4,5:1,4,9:5)
|
Getting error message as
| Code: |
WER200A SORTOF01 RECFM=V/VB, LRECL/BLKSIZE INVALID
|
Seems like maximum LRECL for a VB file is 32,756 (4 bytes less than BLKSIZE) and its reached. What to do in this case?.
Am fine with FB file as well. But how to copy RDW bytes, if i convert?.
Any suggestions would be appreciated. |

| Your msg indicates you are using SYNCSORT, post in the right subsection of the forum then. |

When copying RECFM=VB it makes no sense to include the duplicated RDW into the record body.
You can use either IEBGENER, or SORT, or any other utility - your RDW will be copied as part of VB record.
No need to create a problem from nothing. |

Both SYNCSORT, and DFSORT forums must be combined together.
The two utilities are 99.5% compatible. |

To fiddle out what product they might be using? Most of the chaps post w/o msg indicators, so NO from my side. |

If you are sure your ACTUAL RECORDS are shorter than 32756, you can "cheat" the utility:
| Code: |
//SORTIN DD DISP=SHR,DSN=your_input_dsn,
// LRECL=32752 = (32656 - 4), to allow record extension by 4 bytes |
because the LRECL value from DD has priority over the LRECL from VTOC |

Hi Sergeyken,
Thanks for the suggestion on coding the LRECL on Dataset. I aware that this will definitely work. And yes, input file doesn't contain data till 32,756 bytes.
This file is going to Cloud environment and seems like they are using RDW data as one of the key for VB files(I don't have full info).
Thanks again!.
@ Joerg,
Will check and post the questions on correct forums. thanks for the suggestion. |
