Error description

  • User had an issue with a File Manager batch FCH job. The change
    command:  C '/*R' '//*R' ...changed matching records to
    /**ROUTE instead of //*ROUTE.  Here is the FM code from the
    batch job:
    
       $$FILEM FCH INPUT=DDIN,
       $$FILEM MEMBER=*,
       $$FILEM PACK=ASIS,
       $$FILEM JCL=YES
       C '/*R' '//*R'
       /+
    

Local fix

  • As a work around, if you code the following then the FCH job
    should be successful:
    
       $$FILEM FCH INPUT=DDIN,
       $$FILEM MEMBER=*,
       $$FILEM PACK=ASIS,
       $$FILEM JCL=NO
       BNDS 1 72
       C '/*R' '//*R'
       /+
