Details |
If SORT31PL is in effect, a 31-bit extended parameter list is used to invoke the host sort utility. If NOSORT31PL is in effect, a 24-bit parameter list is used.
If SORT31PL is specified, then the SORTOPTS system option should also be specified. Also, because sorts that currently support a 31-bit parameter list also support the EQUALS option, the SORTEQOP system option should be specified in order to maximize performance.
