Re: DFSORT FILSZ=U question. (fwd)



OPTION USEWKDD can be used to temporarily override DYNAUTO=IGNWKDD,
thereby allowing JCL SORTWKdd data sets to be used rather than
deallocated.

Subject: DFSORT FILSZ=U question. (fwd)

I just want to make sure that I understand the book. If I specify
FILSZ=Unnn, then DFSORT will use my value instead of any other.

What happened is that we had a sort job go down with INSUFFICIENT SORT
space on a VSAM file . The actual problem was that the input file's
catalog statistics were junk. It reported about 4 billion records. Of
course, SORT could not allocate enough SORTWK to sort 4 billion records!

Another problem is that our standard ICEMAC1 has DYNAUTO=IGNWKDD. I
cannot
change this because too many jobs have invalid SORTWKnn DD in them.

So, if I have a similar problem in the future, will FILSZ=Unnn, where
"nnn" is replaced by a close number to the actual number of records,
override SORT's calculation? As I read it, it will override SORT. But I
need to be sure before publishing this "fix".
