your file is in OPEN now.

you might have missed the CISIZE paramer while defining the dataset. so defaultly it was allocated with 32k. And you defined file definition in CICS with LSRPOOL =1 whcih doesn't have 32K buffers.

Please allocate the files with 2/4/8K CIsizes. thanks
let me know if any clarifications needed.

HI rakesh,
while creating file i have given CISZ as 32786.. is there any way to change that POOL value.?
say if CISZ is 32k then what should be the value int LSRpool??

If your file's CISZ is 32k then LSRPOOL should have atleast one buffer of 32k size. You can change the LSRPool id while you defining file entry using CEDA.


You can find info about LSR pool in page 146 in CICS resource Definition guide.
