Hello,
What happened when you tried this on your system?
If you haven't tried this on some test file, why not? |

First, CISZ doesn't take two values -- it takes single values only. Were you thinking perhaps of RECSZ instead?
Second, did you check the manual? It specifically says
| Quote: |
| The size of the control interval depends on the maximum size of the data records and the amount of buffer space you provide. If the size you specify is not an integer multiple of 512 or 2048, VSAM selects the next higher multiple for your cluster's control interval size. |
but it goes on to indicate that a data component CISZ has to be large enough for the maximum RECSZ plus 7 bytes and the CISZ will be increased if necessary. |

| If CONTROLINTERVALSIZE is not coded, VSAM determines the size of control intervals. so if v declare CISZ(0) it will automatically determine the size, is it correct? |

Hello,
I believe you stopped reading too soon. . .
is not the same as not coded. It is coded, but has been specified as zero.
From further on the documentation page:
| Quote: |
| If the control interval specified is less than maximum record length plus a 7-byte overhead, then VSAM will increase the data control interval size to contain the maximum record length plus the needed overhead. |
