Hi,

How do I find the size of file in no. of bytes?

I used a syncsort job on a file and it shows filesize in sysout.



Is there any other way to find the size of file / any formula for calculation of size?

Thanks.

Find the number of blocks used by the file. Multiply the number of blocks times the bytes per block.

Ok......sorry for the confusion............

I tried to copy a file to SYSOUT DUMMY. Though the job ended successfully I don't see any FILESIZE appearing in the sysout.
I don't know why and how our production does show this FILESIZE info in it's SORT step !!!

Thanks.

Hello,

Every sort process i've ever run shows the size of the data it "worked on". . .

I don't see any FILESIZE appearing in the sysout.

Post all of the informational output from this step includingall of the messages and message ids. . .

Ok.......after trail and error attempts with my SORT job I am getting the FILESIZE appearing in the SYSOUT.

Thank you all...........
