This is an odd one.
Has anyone else verified the zip patches (cmsmvs version) applied
results in the same message when zipping files over 4GB :
" zip error: Entry too big to split, read, or write (Poor compression
resulted in unexpectedly large entry - try -fz)"
or does it work ?

I applied this patch for unzip, and it works :
==> call userid.infozip(unzip) '-t userid.testmake.ZIP'
Archive: userid.testmake.zip
testing: notes OK
testing: testmake.zipinfo OK
No errors detected in compressed data of userid.testmake.zip.
***
==> call userid.infozip(unzip) '-a userid.testmake.ZIP -d
userid.testmake'
Archive: userid.testmake.zip
inflating: userid.testmake(notes)
inflating: userid.testmake.zipinfo(testmake)
***
This allocates the files & it is readable.
In batch // PARM='/-a TESTMAKE.ZIP -d "userid.TESTMAKE"' job completes
with RC=0, & I get this message but the dataset does not get created
(perhaps writing to hfs/zfs, but cannot find it).
Archive: TESTMAKE.ZIP
inflating: userid.TESTMAKE(notes)
inflating: userid.TESTMAKE.zipinfo(testmake)
Unzip (USS/unix) still works fine.
/tmp/infozip/unzip60/mvs: >/infozip/unzip60/unzip -l testmake.zip
Archive: testmake.zip
