Specifying output fixed format record length

Output data to transient data queues and temporary storage queues is, by default, written as 80-byte fixed length records. Use the Output File Override execution command (-O) to override the default and specify a different fixed output record length that is less than or equal to 32768.

The following examples demonstrate how to specify the fixed output record length using the Output File Override (-O) execution command:

Example
