When I run a FAVER2 MAP pgm against this tape, I do not get a full 'Map' of all the DSN on this tape.. The program reads the first DSN ( and truncates the name to 17 characters)

Issue/Introduction

Question:

 

Is there some kind of limitation on DSN creation?  The TLBL is truncated to 17 char.  Why the  FAVER2 MAP pgm only showing one DSN

 

/ JOB GVMAP2                                

*  ASSGN SYS001,702                          

// ASSGN SYSLST,SYS007                       

// TLBL COPYIN,'DSN.NAME.20151201'

// EXEC FAVER2,SIZE=AUTO                     

   MAP                                       

There are multiple files on the TAPE

 

Answer:

Yes there is a 17 char limit on the TLBL.

 

When there are multiple DSNs on a tape, a TLBL for each DSN must be present for each one.

// ASSGN SYSLST,SYS007                       

// TLBL COPYIN,'DSN.NAME.20151101,W'

// TLBL COPYIN,'DSN.NAME.20151201,W'

// EXEC FAVER2,SIZE=AUTO
