Can I copy the FB (fixed Block) record length file to a VB
(variable Block)record length file and Vise Versa? If Yes
then how ? is that thru one of the JCL utility ?

Answer Posted / ds

Yes. using IEBGENER utility we can copy this. But this is
not advisable until there's a specific requirement.

FB to VB
--------
FB rec length is X
VB rec length should be X+4

VB to FB
--------
VB rec length is X (Length indicated in JCL)
FB rec length is X-4
Note: But here in second case lot disk space will be wasted.

Without the idea of requirement and system design, one
can't say anything.

Thanks, DS.
