PDSE and HLASM together in z/OS 2.1

2014-02-26 Thread Miklos Szigetvari
Hi Not so serious problem, in z/OS 1.13 we wrote our SYSADATA to PDSE and using 0M region size. In z/OS 2.1 all this jobs ended with an S0F4 reason x'24' and i/O error with SYSADATA After a PMR it turned out that the PDSE has not enough storage. We are using the default assembler OPTION

I want to define a large field e.g. Long1DSBL1504What I want but you can't defined fields longer than 256 bytes, so instead I did: Long2EQU *,1504,C'B' What I need to code DS(L'Long2)B... Is there any real difference between Long1 and Long2,

Not really the answer you are looking for, but why not: Long1 DS CL1504 binary data (1 field of 1504 characters) The assembler should take that and doesn't really care what data you put in the field. Or you could try: Long1 DS 1504B (1504 1 byte values treated as one

I think it would be worthwhile to propose to John Ehrman that the maximum for BL fields be upped to 64 kibibytes - 1 (65535). This is already the [DS-only] limit for C and X data. (For DBCS G data it is 64 kibibytes - 2 (65534) for obvious reasons. ) John Gilmore, Ashland, MA 01721 - USA
