Sorry, I mixed up some things (before the first coffee). Rewrite: The BLKSIZE must be 4 more than LRECL for a RECFM=V dataset and 8 for a RECFM=VB dataset. You are right that, although bullet 5 is applicable, it is incorrect or at least incomplete. You must be able to SR this.
Thanks, Kees. -----Original Message----- From: Vernooij, Kees (ITOPT1) - KLM Sent: 16 December, 2016 8:20 To: 'IBM Mainframe Discussion List' <IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU> Subject: RE: 32767? The reason is (you know, I suppose) that blksize must be 8 (4 for the RDW +4 for the BDW) less than lrecl for a VB dataset. Reading the possible errors, you could see that bullet 5 is applicable to you, although it says '4' i.s.o. '8'. 4 is for RECFM=V, 8 for RECFM=FB.

M&C gives eight possible explanations for RC=34. That's bad. Each reason should have a distinct reason code rather than requiring the programmer to investigate each of the eight. And here, none of the eight seems to apply. If someone can't supply what I fail to understand, I may go to SR. And damn Rexx for showing RC in decimal when all the reference material show hex!
