Clark,
I don't know where it is written up, but it has been this way as long as I
can remember, which is 5 minutes when I go to the shop, and a bit longer for
IDCAMS.
Following example look at the CISZ(32768) versus the physical record size
(16384).
Is is possible to print the content of additional 32-byte sufix using
AMASPZAP or maybe other tool?
Is the sufix content documented anywhere?

Of course I know the offset and old data. What I cannot predict is disk
address and in fact cannot understand why AMASPZAP wants me to provide
unnecessary information.
I think you may misunderstand the parameters. The offset on the VER and REP
y not simply an edit session with a hex change command? As you are doing a
PS dataset anyway, no big deal. Or a simple program?

I don't know what you mean by "current one", as I have V2R3 manual

Problem #1.
I want to change some data in a dataset (non-PO) using AMASPZAP.
My SYSIN:
CCHHR 0555000A01
VER 01F6 080006,400050,01E00016
REP 01F6 080007,400050,01E00026
ABSDUMPT ALL
The problem is CCHHR. Sometimes I know exactly what I want to change
(simply: know VER
I just read some chapter of DFSMS Macro Instructions for Datasets, the
current one.
And I found the manual claims a 3990-9 hac longer track size: it is
56669 - not 56664.
Is it a typo or there is something I don't know???
(it is Appendix 1.5.4)
