Resolution

The IEB120I/IEB1034E failure occur for sites using IEBCOPY instead of PDSMAN. The Scheduler 11.0 install package allocates the ACHDATA and ACHCLIST datasets with LRECL=0 which causing the copy from the CCHB000.F1 relative file to fail with:
IEB120I SMP00002 VALIDATION ERROR
IEB1034E RECORD LENGTHS UNEQUAL BETWEEN INDD SMP00002 (80) AND OUTDD ACHDATA/ACHCLIST (3120).
