WTX z/OS, dynamic PUT to file and variable record length

    Hello all,

     

    we have a map running on z/OS which needs to generate a "dynamic" file (dynamic = name computed based on data values)

     

    This works fine, we only needed to add a "DSN prefix" to get the file in the right library.

     

    Now the issue is the file is created with fixd record length, and therefore contains some "low values" (Ox00) at the end to fill the last record.

     

    I'd like to know what I can do to make the file variable records, any ideas appreciated.

     

    Thanks in advance

    Lauret

    Hi,

    Check for DCB parameters in the JCL. RECFM should be VB.

    Cheers
