Re: COBOL help opening datasets to append records.
Alejandro: Try this. To add new records to the end of a file that already exists, you must: * Open the file OUTPUT, * Then in your JCL, the DD statement for the file needs to have

COBOL help opening datasets to append records.
Hi folks. So I'm trying to append records to an existing dataset with COBOL... wich should be quite straight forward: OPEN EXTEND MY-FILE But it seems the compiler does not support that opening

Re: problem meet when run dfsmsdss restore
Sorry, I had assumed you had a running system already. The absolute simplest way to get a driving system up is to use Customized Offerings Driver (COD).? It's a single volume z/OS at V2.4 (or 2.3),

This procedure works 100% of the time. On the source system, (the real mainframe in your case): This first step uses DFdss to dump the volume to a temporary dataset that we will process with TRS to

Re: Newbie question about REVIEW/RPF etc
For serious entertainment I recommend running a Cobol compile on a ICT 1501 (with tape drives only - as no disk available). Even a smallish program say 2000 cards took over 30 minutes but the tape

Re: Multi-Volume Dataset
Thanks for responding Tom... It is just a for-fun exercise to generate load and stress the system. I can certainly wait.

Re: Multi-Volume Dataset
Joe: Indeed, using your recommended blocking sped up the generate step by about 1/3 and the sort step by about 1/4. Thanks.

Re: Multi-Volume Dataset
How about fixing your blocking to a more efficient blocksize? For a 3390, the tracksize is 56,664 bytes per track, 15 tracks per cylinder, and the optimal blocking is half-track. However, there is
