Hello Barry, WORK in a Hiperspace is no problem, it works. The problem was with WORK defined as a DIV file. Thanks, Kees. -Original Message- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU] On Behalf Of Barry Merrill Sent: Friday, April 19, 2013 17:45 To:

I search all (I think) the docs on the SAS website, including this, but this did not answer my 2 questions: Can WORK not be a DIV file? Is a DIV file limited to the size of the associated Hiperspace. Thanks, kees. -Original Message- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List

SDSF compile output to a PDS via JCL

All of this simply proves the inherent superiority of using z/OS UNIX directories and files. There is no such thing a LRECL or RECFM. So you can make the LRECL any value you need, subject to it being long enough for the longest logical record in the file. The RECFM can be F or V as desired. If F,

The examples did not use anything exotic like that. This was direct attached DASD and the write misses were occasionally half a second and that showed up in the SMF42-6 data as that records average and maximum service times. --

Be sure to set the input string name in the parmlist to NULL on the second through last invocation of strtok; be sure your delimiters make sense for the invocation. You can change delimiters, if needed, on each invocation. On Mon, Apr 22, 2013 at 3:21 PM, Scott Ford scott_j_f...@yahoo.com
