Description

Record storage options.

Valid settings of RECRDOPT are:

SettingMeaning
X'01' When XSIZE is non-zero, this setting changes the behavior of base and extension records.

Records extend when more than BRLIMSZ bytes of a base record are stored. The effect is that there will be no wasted Table B record slots (you will always get BRECPPG records on a page). BRESERVE is ignored (treated as a zero).

X'00' Default setting. Normal extension record methodology is maintained. (If Table X is non-zero, all extensions are stored there rather than in Table B).
