I don't  understand what  you are  saying. The  output generated  by LIST
GLOBAL has 80 bytes per record, so what  you get is a Netdata file with V
80 format. If you  managed to get a V 122 file from  LIST GLOBAL, it is a
bug or perhaps an old version of the code.

This is  because CARD is not  an IBM utility.  If it were, it  would have
about 35 bytes of junk per record, just like DISK DUMP.

Yes, send  an INFO LPUNCH  for two programs that  do that, but  you don't
need them on a machine with Netdata. They are for PC's and the like.
