- I'd suspect different levels of IFASMFDP. I'd try copying the records
- with a different utility that wouldn't monkey with the data, like
- IEBGENER or maybe SAS, and see if the problem persists. (I think that
- GENER does spanned records right; I usually use SAS.) If you have to
- select particular types and if you have SAS, I'd do it this way:
-
- //SMFSELEC EXEC SAS
- //SMFIN DD DSN=<smf.input.dataset>,DISP=SHR,BUFNO=50
- //SMFOUT DD DSN=<selected.smf.records>,DISP=(,CATLG), etc etc
- //SYSIN DD *
- data _null_; infile smfin;
- input @2 type pib1. @;
- file smfout recfm=vbs lrecl=32756 blksize=32760; /* assumes tape */
- if type = <type 1> | type = <type 2> | type = <type 3> | etc etc ;
- put _infile_;
