Hmm, I get that, and maybe I'm just being slow, but you said: "...best practice for SDB is not to specify BLKSIZE=0, it is to specify the DCB and omit the BLKSIZE, or specify the DCB and code BLKSIZE=0."
I'm unclear on what you're describing for the 'best practice' contrasting to what you said was not the best practice.
