I have found that DSORG PS and PO don't always get half track blocking with
SDB. For example, SDB picks a BLKSIZE of 7000 for LRECL 7000.
Assuming you are talking about RECFM=FB,
a blocksize of 7000 gets 6 blocks per track or 42000 bytes/track
a blocksize of 21000 (half-track) also gets 42000 bytes/track, no
difference.
Apparently, with equal track utilization, SDB chooses the smaller
blocksize.
