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:)

Answer / praveen kumar

@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 / raghu

Sntax: //SYSOUTDD DD SYSOUT=*,OUTLIM=500
by using outlim paramtr we can increase it

Answer / pradeep

Thanks Pravin
I need through it by using JCL , i think there is parameter
which change its size

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

Answer / sudha2811
