Copying and Reblocking Load Modules z/OS DFSMSdfp Utilities SC23-6864-00 |
|
The COPYMOD statement lets you COPY and reblock the load modules to a block size appropriate for the device to which you are copying the data set. The text records, relocation dictionary (RLD)/control records,
and note list records of overlay load modules will be rebuilt when
you use COPYMOD. Other records such as SYM and CESD records will be
copied without any changes. The load modules processed by COPYMOD
can be link edited again.
The block size in the output data set label is increased by COPYMOD as needed to match the MAXBLK value. COPYMOD does not write records longer than the output data set block size. However, if COPYMOD cannot process a member, and COPY is used instead, COPY will copy all records, including those records longer than the output data set block size. The reblocking function of COPYMOD lets you specify the following
block sizes:
IEBCOPY will determine the amount of space remaining on a track before assigning a size to the next block to be written. If this amount is smaller than the output block size, IEBCOPY will try to determine if a smaller block can be written to use the remaining space on the track. The maximum block size produced by the COPYMOD function is 32760 bytes. |
