Closed as program error.
Error description
Rational Developer for z systems 9.5.1 copy local to remote does not warn the user for data loss beyond the logical record lenght (LRECL) Records are truncated to LRECL when copying files with a larger record length than LRECL This can happen both with sequential datasets and PDS members. When doing direct editing and saving via RSE MVS, RDz prompts the user before uploading to tell them about the truncation. In this copy/paste scenario this does not happen.
Local fix
Problem summary
When a user copies a local file that has lines that exceed LRECL on the destination PDS, the lines are truncated without warning.
Problem conclusion
There is no check for lines that exceed LRECL when doing a cross-system copy to a PDS. The solution is to add a check and prompt the user if they want to continue.
Temporary fix
