Error in JCL DFSORT

I would like to ask for help regarding this JCL... I can't seem to get it working. I'm running this on mainframe. I get RC 16.

//X544582Z  JOB (T,92958888P),                      
//          'N=TSO.X544582',                        
//          CLASS=S,                                
//          MSGCLASS=H,                             
//          MSGLEVEL=(1,1),

  OPTION COPY                                       
  OUTREC BUILD=(1,1172,TRAN=ATOE)

RC=16 just means there is something wrong, which SORT can't deal with.

Guessing:

  1. Your input is VB, and you should have:

    OPTION COPY
    OUTREC BUILD=(5,TRAN=ATOE)

    The 5 says "from position 5 to the end of the current record".

  2. Your input is FB, and your record-length is less than 1172.
