Issue/Introduction
The batch copy job failed with following messages:
COPY,
INFILE(DD01),
OUTFILE(DD01O),
SELRECIF(2,EQ,C'0XX')
*** CAWA2101I DDNAME DD01 records read: 5,300
*** CAWA2101I DDNAME DD01O records written: 0
*** CAWA2532I DDNAME DD01 no records selected - RC set to 4
Before applying File Master Plus maintenance, this weekly copy job ended RC=0.
Environment
Z/OS 2.5
Cause
The File Master batch job option module CAWAOPTS overwritten by unmodified version.
Resolution
Either modify SELRECIF statement with scan-length parameter which current statement was omitted.
Example - SELRECIF(2,EQ,C'0XX') -> SELRECIF(2,3,EQ,C'0XX')
Or update File Master Plus option CAWAOPTS's from BAT_RDW=N to BAT_RDW=Y. If the input file is variable-length records.

Customize Options
The CAWAOPT macro can optionally be used to specify the default processing options for File Master Plus batch and online product components.
This section provides a description of the CAWAOPT keywords.
BAT_RDW=N
The default RDW keyword used by batch commands. This option controls the inclusion of the 4-byte record descriptor word of variable-length records in record positions 1 - 4. The first 2 bytes of the RDW contain the record length + the length of the RDW, which is 4. This value is in hex. Bytes 3 and 4 contain low-values. Valid values are Y, N.
With RDW(Y), the RDW is made available to the current batch command and its keywords. For example, it is available to move to a specific position within a record, to query its value, or even compare it to another RDW.
The RDW is made available to the current command and its keywords. For example, it is available to move to a specific position within a record, to query its value, or even compare it to another RDW.
The default is N. To override this parameter, use the RDW operand on the batch command.
