I'm wondering how to get the LBI Blksize from SMF 14 / 15. Maybe I can't. If I figure it out I'll try to write it up (or point to any existing write up).

The system uses it. Use the BLKSIZE field in the DCBE. For more information about DCBE field descriptions see z/OS DFSMS Macro Instructions for Data Sets. http://pic.dhe.ibm.com/infocenter/zos/v1r12/index.jsp?topic=%2Fcom.ibm.zos.r 12.idad500%2Fdcbem.htm 28(1C) 4 DCBEBLKSI BLKSIZE coded on DCBE macro or, if BLKSIZE=0 was coded, value set by OPEN. After OPEN, this field is valid only if OPEN set DCBESLBI on.

I am currently getting the LRECL and BLOCKSIZE from the JFCB area. I always get the LRECL. However, for LBI files (> 32k blocksize) I always get zero for the BLOCKSIZE. This doesn't surprise me because the field in the JFCB is only 2 bytes long. Does anyone know how I would go about getting the larger block size?
