Enables strict mainframe emulation behavior during a sort.

Parameters

ON/OFF

  • Modification of a ZD number with value 0 through INREC or OUTREC processing now keeps its sign value.
  • Records that are shorter than the output file's LRECL will be padded with low-values instead of spaces.

The default is OFF.
