Logical record length (LRECL)

Use the logical record length value to specify the length of records for newly created data sets.

The logical record length value can be obtained from an SMS data class, inherited from a model data set, or you can enter a value.

If you did not specify an SMS data class or a model data set on the first wizard panel, you are required to enter a value for the logical record length.

If you did specify an SMS data class or a model data set on the first wizard panel, then the logical record length will be obtained from the SMS data class or model data set. You can choose to override the obtained value, by selecting "Use this value:" and entering a logical record length.

If you specified both an SMS data class and a model data set on the first wizard panel, then the logical record length will be obtained from the model data set. You can choose to override the obtained value, by selecting "Use this value:" and entering a logical record length.
