Hi All,
I'm wondering if anyone has run into this. We back up VSAM files (to DISK) using CA-FAVER 4.3 SP1. The output disk files get assigned a data class that is extended format (non-compressed). The block size being set for the output file is 27998, which appears to be bad for Extended format since there are 32bytes/block overhead for SMS. The current JCL has no DCB information for the output. I've tries DCB=BLKSIZE=0, but still get 27998. I can change the JCL to DCB=BLKSIZE=27966, but I'm wondering if there's any other way. I've been to the CA website, but it appears that FAVER is stabilized. Any pointers are appreciated. Thanks!
