Help please...
I have a problem trying to create a KSDS file from a sequential file.
Am using File Manager Version 6.15 and is my first attempt to use such
to create a KSDS.
I cannot interpret the documentation and the BUTIL-100 error message
is not helpful (like 'what data buffer').
I have to put 200/300 files through this process. If I can get the
first working I feel the remainder will be easy even though some will
require two alternate keys.
... so I executed the following .CMD file, in an NT DOS window..
BUTIL -CREATE E:\CONRAD\VS1A\ZZJ35VSA.FIL E:\CONRAD\VS1A\ZZJ35BU2.TXT
... where ZZJ35BU2.TXT contained.all File Manager elements in order,
all lowercase, (page=4096 was desperation),...
record=100 variable=n truncate=n compress=n
key=1 page=4096 replace=n
fthreshold=20
position=1 length=3 duplicates=n
modifiable=n type=string null=n
segment=n
...where ZZJ35VSA.FIL contained (these recs are fixed format and 100
bytes each) ...

...this was the result..
E:\conrad\vs1a>zzj35bu1
E:\conrad\vs1a>BUTIL -CREATE E:\CONRAD\VS1A\ZZJ35VSA.FIL
E:\CONRAD\VS1A\ZZJ35BU2
..TXT
File Manager Version 6.15

BUTIL-14: The file that caused the error is
E:\CONRAD\VS1A\ZZJ35VSA.FIL.
BUTIL-100: Microkernel error = 97. The data buffer is too small.
BUTIL-9: The command did not complete due to an unrecoverable error.
E:\conrad\vs1a>
And I know this stuff is absolutely old but I have reasons!
Am having trouble interpreting, finding 'data buffer' parameter other
than in Trace.
Any help mightily appreciated. Please, thanks.
