Roscoe

Issue/Introduction

When allocated the Account File with Prefix.SAMPJCL(RO60ALAC), the DCB information was LRECL=1020 and BLKSIZE=1024.
However, when started Roscoe, the DCB information was changed to LRECL=2004 and BLKSIZE=2008.
Is this correct ?

Environment

Release : 6.0

Resolution

This one depends on the setting of the Roscoe SYSIN parameter(ACCTBUFF=).

When the account file is allocated, LRECL=1020 and BLKSIZE=1024, but if ACCTBUFF= is set to (2,2008), which is the default setting, it will be initialized when Roscoe starts, and LRECL=2004 and BLKSIZE=2008 will be used.

If ACCTBUFF= is (2,2560), LRECL=2556 and BLKSIZE=2560.

This is a design.
