Again I am sorry but at this point I believe you cannot issue a CALL for a program in 64 bits. I do nothing when switching back and forth with my CALLs. In a message dated 4/4/2019 11:09:16 AM Venezuela Standard Time, mutazi...@gmail.com writes: On Thu, 4 Apr 2019 15:03:43 +, Gene Hudders

Hi: The average record size is probably one of the nonsense parameters in the CLUSTER definition. It is my understanding that it is used primarily when you define the space requirements in RECORDS versus Cylinders and Tracks. Do you really know the average record size? I am not completely

Hi: I can't say for sure, but my guess is there's something 'not-quite-right' in the enqueueing logic that is supposed to be protecting the dataset from being updated by CICS and batch simultaneously. ATTRIBUTES KEYLEN30 AVGLRECL2965
