WHY LRECL NEEDS TO BE 4 EXTRA THEN THE COBOL FILE LENGTH &
WHAT IT CONTAIN IN THAT LENGTH

Answer Posted / narinder

In JCL, LRECL NEEDS TO BE 4 EXTRA THAN THE COBOL FILE LENGTH in case of Variable Block File. Since length of each record varies in the file, the first 4 bytes contains the length of the corresponding record.

Please correct me if I am wrong.
