I'm wondering if you can use PARM='SDB=INPUT' (or YES) to get IEBGENER to copy 
EVENTLOG?

I'd try to test this myself on our sandbox z/OS 2.2 system but we're not 
generating EVENTLOG datasets, even though JES2 checkpoint is at Z22 level and 
JOBDEF SUP_EVENTLOG_SMF is set to NO. Scratching my head there.

Oh, and the SDSF manual doesn't list any field in the JDS (Job Data Set) panel 
that provides block-size information, only RECFM and LRECL, so I don't think 
you can get that.

Ant.

Subject: s013-68 on JES2 EVENTLOG?

We just got our z/OS 2.2 system up.  So I regression tested an EXEC that 
unloads the spool files of a job to UNIX files.

It uses IEBGENER  to copy each DDNAME allocated by SDSF to a UNIX file.
It specifies no DCB attributes on SYSUT2, leaving it to IEBGENER to copy to 
SYSUT2 those supplied by SDSF.

I see a spool file I've never seen before: stepname JES2, ddname EVENTLOG, 
which fails with:

   7   8 EVENTLOG:  RECFM=U  LRECL=32760  CHARS=****,****,****,****
 IEC141I 013-68,IFG0196L,user,$STCTSO1,SYS00196
 IEA995I SYMPTOM DUMP OUTPUT
 SYSTEM COMPLETION CODE=013  REASON CODE=00000068
  TIME=14.50.12  SEQ=00083  CPU=0000  ASID=0063
  PSW AT TIME OF ERROR  075C1000   80A26336  ILC 2  INTC 0D
    NO ACTIVE MODULE FOUND
    NAME=UNKNOWN
    DATA AT PSW  00A26330 - 4100302C  0A0D010D  A7E5014B

SDSF "SE" opens it OK with profile:
 =PROF> ....ISFEDIT (VARIABLE - 32760)....RECOVERY ON....NUMBER OFF....

Why is this breaking IEBGENER?  (I don't know how to extract BLKSIZE from SDSF.)

Might it be because IEBGENER might be DCBE-ignorant?
