Thank you. -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU] On Behalf Of Ken Porowski Sent: Wednesday, June 17, 2015 3:07 PM To: IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU Subject: Re: VSAM record size larger than 32K
When you use a record size that is larger than one control interval, you must also specify spanned records (SPANNED). The formula for the maximum record size of spanned records as calculated by VSAM is as follows: MAXLRECL = CI/CA * (CISZ - 10) where: v MAXLRECL is the maximum spanned record size. v CI/CA represents the number of control intervals per control area. v CISZ is the control interval size. Restriction: With REPRO and EXPORT, you cannot use data sets with record sizes greater than 32 760.

If you have a VSAM ksds with records that are going to be larger than 32K, what is the best way to handle the records? Since I believe 32k is the max how would you handle a logical record > 32K? Multiple 32k physical records? ========================== This email, and any files transmitted with it, is confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to which it is addressed.
