It is 32,760.Based on that we can calculate efficient number
of Records in a Block

Answer / sunitha

The number of bytes that we specify for the block size
depends on the device type and the record format of the
dataset. The maximum is 3270 bytes for DASD datesets and
2,147,483,648 bytes (2097152KB or 2048MB or 2GB) for tape.

GDGs can be CREATED (not COPIED) only on DASD and NOT on tape drives ? Is it True ?
