>From personal experience, my test confirmation with TRSMAIN (typically a dump

sent to a vendor) is to execute TRSMAIN in batch with PARM=PACK (no DCB on
either INFILE or
OUTFILE), then FTP (binary) to myself and then run again with PARM=UNPACK,
again without any DCB,
using different input and output (transient) DSNs, then attempt to read the
file with an appropriate
utility. I've had success with both FTP and XMIT.
Hopefully you would be able identify what's going on, and where without much
difficulty (LRECL,
RECFM and such). Good luck.

I'm trying to UNPACK some RMF data with TRSMAIN 4.13, and get:
**** STARTING TERSE DECODE UNPACK 4.13 11:29:26 8/21/06
FOR INPUT - DDNAME: INFILE DSNAME: NICK.TRS
FOR OUTPUT - DDNAME: OUTFILE DSNAME: RMF.DATA1
WARNING: OUTPUT LRECL IS LARGER THAN THE LARGEST RECORD OF THE ORIGNAL
FILE.
OUTPUT LRECL IS: 32760 ORIGINAL LRECL IS: 8955
ERROR: FOUND A RECORD LONGER THAN THE LRECL.
THE VALUES ARE: BLKSIZE= 27998 LRECL=32760 PACKTYPE=PACK
RECFM=VARIABLE
**** FINISHED TERSE DECODE UNPACK 4.13 11:29:26 8/21/06
I've tried leaving the DCB to TRSMAIN and it does the same as providing it
myself. I couldn't even find a hit on the error message either from the
Great God Google or from searching IBM web sites.
Does anyone know how to make this work, or can enlighten me as to what I'm
doing wrong ?
Many thanks
Nick
