file?

Answer / praveen kumar
I think there is one way to do this. Simply copy the
existing PS to another file(give '/' beside the PS and Give
option 17(copy)) It will ask for DSname(give any).
you will get 2 options as below
1. Allocate using same attributes
2. specify your own attributes
select '2' option from the above and change the LRECL as
you need.
now delete the actual file and rename the copied file to
original that's it. your requirement has been met:)

@Raghu: If you use Outlim, that means the spool can be able
to print only 500 lines, it's no way related to LRECL.

Answer / balachander
this is possible through the utility IEBGENER.
//sysut1 dd DSN= <input datsset>
//sysut2 dd dsn =<output dataset>
dcb=(lrecl,100,blksize=1000)
.....

Answer / praveen kumar
Yaa, what Balachander is given is correct. Using IEBGENER
utility we can copy one file to another with different
lrecl, but one thing we need to make clear is the LRECL of
the output file should be greater than inputfile otherwise
the data will be truncated.
Thanks
