In RMM, I checked the block size = 262144, which is 256KB in size.
And if we can't trust it, and does dss program record block size in SMF 21

Hi,
I think I find an answer to question 1 from my previous note.
It seems that the programs for determing the total number of available aux
slots don't take into account any page datasets that were added later using a
PAGEADD command.

1. Why don't you trust RMM ?
Well, if you do PAGEADDs, and especially PAGEDELs and replace pagevolumes,
figures become very complicated. ASM has a very curious algorithm of
administrating where pages reside when you think you moved them from one page
dataset to another. They are not moved at the same time in ASM's

Default Bounds by dataset type:

If you do not explicitly set bounds, the editor uses the default bounds.
These bounds change as the number mode changes. If you have changed the
bounds
NUM OFF should display the full 80 bytes with the numbers (if they were there
in the first place). It should not blank them.
Were there line numbers in the first place or were they blank to start with?
Try using the commands manually rather than in the exec. Use PF10/PF11 to
display the line

You're probably seeing references to the DATASET class in RACF or the DATASET
