Charles,
This is why in my earlier post I said that 16 works for half track blocking.
8x27998=223984 which means the chain length will be limited to 8 half track
blocks. However MVS loves CPU/IO overlap, so we have another eight buffers
that can be processed while the other eight are used for IO.
The education you can receive is really excellant. The assembler class's are
good, with both basic and new instructions and everything in between. The
hands-on lab's for IPCS are also great. I would strongly recommend anyone

But, unless your Cobol source employs no input/output

Perhaps, you're well aware of this. But, I've only seen
