Does fromdsn suport LRECL>32767?
Posted: Thu Aug 23, 2007 1:56 pm
Historically, datasets were restricted to have a LRECL of at most 32767 (signed halfword). However, z/OS now allows LRECL=X for datasets with RECFM=VBS or VS. Does fromdsn support this?
Also, I've noticed that if I use fromdsn on a VBS file with the -l rdw parameter, it combines all the segments into a single record on output. Is this guaranteed? I am assuming so because if it didn't, I couldn't determine if the "next record" was a continuation of the current record.
Thanks.
