QUSRTOOL's CVTTAPSAVD Problem
The CVTTAPSAVD utility in QUSRTOOL creates a temporary file (QTEMP/CVTOUTQTMP) using default values for number of records (10000). The first time I ran it, I kept getting file full messages. There are two ways to correct this:
1. Edit member TAASAVHC in QUSRTOOL/QATTCL and add a SIZE(*NOMAX) to the CRTPF QTEMP/CVTOUTQTMP. Compile specifying library TAATOOL for the object. Warning: This change will be lost if you go to a new release and recreate CVTTAPSAVD!
2. Probably a better solution would be to create the file in the CL program as follows:
CRTPF FILE(QTEMP/CVTOUTQTMP) + RCDLEN(132) SIZE(*NOMAX) + LVLCHK(*NO)
The program only creates the file if it doesn't already exist.
