This parameter specifies the longest physical block being processed.

option(s)

Options

Table 4-6 lists the parameter option(s) and definition(s).

LMULT

This parameter specifies a multiplication factor being applied to the
contents of the block length field to determine the true block length.

Syntax

BLOCK LMULT =

option(s)

Table 4-7 lists the parameter option(s) and definition(s).

Table 4-6.

LENGTH parameter option(s) and definition(s)

Option(s)

Definition(s)

value

Specifies the length, in bytes, of the longest physical
block (an integer in the range 12 to 24,576). The
default is 1330. The maximum block size that may be
processed (up to 24,576 bytes) is dependent upon
the available task memory and the processing
features being invoked. Refer to “Points to note—
BLOCK command” later in this chapter for further
details. For offline processing, the tape label
contents may override a coded LENGTH parameter,
but this length is still limited by the above maximum
value.

The default is 1330.

Table 4-7.

LMULT parameter option(s) and definition(s)

Option(s)

Definition(s)

value

Multiplied by the value in the length field (refer to
LENGTH parameter) to compute the number of bytes
in the block. A value is an integer in the range of 1
(the default) to 15.

The default is 1.
