Clark,
I don't know where it is written up, but it has been this way as long as I
can remember, which is 5 minutes when I go to the shop, and a bit longer for
IDCAMS.
Following example look at the CISZ(32768) versus the physical record size
(16384). Physical record size is the block size used for each record on the
track, so each CI uses two blocks or records and can span a track boundary.

Where is this written up? Being retired, I missed this and didn't realize
this was true on the OS390 system I worked on in the 1990s.
