Rick:
Thanks, you are correct. I just copied the jcl I usually use and forgot I
had changed the JCL for looking at some test data I generated.
Good Catch!

---------------------<snip>----------------------
The 813-04 abend is due to the dsname in your jcl not matching the dsname
on the tape. You either have to specify the dsname in the jcl to match the
tape and treat it as a SL tape, or you can use LABEL=(2,BLP) to just
process the data(skipping over the internal label). If you choose the BLP
approach, you will need the correct dcb attributes for the file. To
determine the internal label and dsn, you can use a tape map program, if
one is available or you can use IEBGENER as follows:
//STEP01 EXEC PGM=IEBGENER
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSUT1 DD DSN=ANYTAP,UNIT=3480,DISP=OLD,VOL=SER=T99999,
// LRECL=80,BLKSIZE=80,RECFM=F,LABEL=(2,BLP)
//SYSUT2 DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN DD DUMMY
Keep in mind that if the fully qualified dsname is longer than 17 bytes,
you will only see the last 17 bytes of it in the tape hdr, but you still
need the full name in your JCL.
Hope that helps

Bill, the labels, in this case, would be in file 1, not file 2. <G>
