> 0C60001B0590 > 0ADF20800000 This certainly doesn't look like a valid terse header. There is no IBM doc on the header format, but from lots of previous eyeballing, the first bytes work something like this: Offset 00 is the compression/encoding algorithm 02=PACK, 05-SPACK, 07-PDS[E] PACK, 09=PDS[E] SPACK Offset 01 is 00 for fixed records (F), or 01 for variable (V or U) Offset 02 is the 2-byte LRECL (with some oddities for VB) Offset 04 is flags that encode aspects of the RECFM in combination with byte 1, e.g 0C would be FB or VB. Offset 06 is the 2-byte blocksize. So either this is not the output of TRSMAIN, or perhaps it has been passed through something like a mangling character translation, or perhaps it is not the actual start of the file. I'm sorry I can't help based on this.
