The sample I saw included what looked like valid BDWs and RDWs. If it is not 
missing records then it should work with a DCB override.

Subject: Re: Format PDS unloaded on an CD

Joe Monk seems  right with the déjà vu:

If you have an iebcopy unload file transferred (as binary), the outmost layer 
of the rdws an bdws
are simply gone.

On the PC, the data are simply concatenated. not was to retrieve the 
blocks/records usin ind$file.
Ok, so be it.

This is not a catastrophy.

Peter Farley gave a link

    https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/zos/2.2.0?topic=format-introduction

That documentation describes the record formats for IEBCOPY unload datasets,

btw:

   - this doc is like the old french minitel services, a maximum number of 
small paragraphs, one per
page. And the examples are just images. well.

   - the dasdload command in hercules is also a good source of info.

Best
