I think JES2 considers a line literally as a line to be printed on a
printer. The other records in the dataset contain information to control
the printer, e.g. advance the paper, but do not print lines. In other
words, they do not cost ink and therefore should not be charged to the
customer. In this case lines in the output file are 'print lines', which
is not the same as records in the dataset.

> is there someone having experiences with JES2? I have a strange
"problem". A user created a spool file and SDSF and $DJ are showing a
record count of 12 lines. When I look at the file I see 29 lines and
when I write it to a dataset (XDC-command in SDSF) I will also have 29
lines. The record format is VBA and there are 17 lines containing only a
control character in the first byte. This means that JES2 is not
counting records having only a control character and no further data.
Can someone confirm this or do we have a bug? I could not find something
in the documentation but maybe I missed it.
