All(hopefully Frank),
I'm not a DFSORT expert, but have some questions(an ETR has
Already been opened with IBM on this). We recently
Started adding MOD27's to our SMS management pool that is used
For SORTWKxx allocations. Jobs that worked in the past now fail
Because DFSORT cannot switch to BLOCKSET mode because of some
Other issue, which when coding SORTDIAG, DFSORT does tell us. It just
Seems to me that DFSORT doesn't handle MOD27's too well when jobs
Coded and run for years that work fine with SORTWKxx allocations to 3390-3
or
3390-9 work volumes work just fine. What are others experience? Did you
leave
SORTWKxx allocations on mod-9's? We've got thousands of jobs, and don't
Want to wait for the ticking timebomb.....
Other user experiences would be helpful.

One failed because we were trying to sort RECFM=V
Records with a length of 32760, which I believe to be valid. If I subtract
4 from that(32756), then the sort works fine, exept the user data is
reported
To be 32760. See:
