Hi,

Kindly consider the following two cases

Case 1:

SPACE REQUESTED = BYTES
RECFM=FB
LRECL=13
BLKSIZE=13

Showing in data set information like allocated bytes is 10062

Case 2:

SPACE REQUESTED = BYTES
RECFM=VB
LRECL=13
BLKSIZE=17

Showing in data set information like allocated bytes is 1462

Kindly let me know how the space is calculated here.
