Hi,
Would like to use IDCAMS to copy a FB dataset to a VB dataset, but somethings off:
Code:

//COPY     EXEC PGM=IDCAMS                                   
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*                                       
//INFILE   DD DSN=dataset 1
//OUTFILE  DD DSN=dataset2,               
//            DISP=(NEW,CATLG,CATLG),                       
//            DCB=(RECFM=VB,LRECL=250,BLKSIZE=0,DSORG=PS),
//            SPACE=(CYL,(25,25),RLSE),UNIT=SYSDA           
//SYSIN    DD *                                             
 REPRO INFILE(INFILE) OUTFILE(OUTFILE)                       

What am I missing ?

KM,

You are missing Sysprint error messages without which we cannot help you.

KM,

The next time you try to seek help , make sure that you post the complete error messages. If you would have posted
Code:

IDC3309I ** RECORD X'C1C2C34040' NOT WRITTEN.  LENGTH INVALID


it would have been solved in the first post it self.

You forgot that VB files have an additional 4 bytes of RDW. So change your LRECL on the OUTFILE to 254.

Check this link for a detailed explanation of the error

Hope this helps...

Cheers
