RTC ZOS client err:Item Handle array cannot exceed 2048

Is there some limit for the number of zfile for one component,for example there are must less 2048 zfiles in a component?

I meet a problem when I use RTC ZOS client to do the EDIT action,the error message is
297 *-* 'write' LogFD 'errbytes (len)'
+++ RC(-21) +++
*-* 'write' LogFD 'errbytes (len)'
+++ RC(-21) +++
319 *-* 'close' LogFD
+++ RC(-21) +++
***
F1 shows:
Item Handle array cannot exceed 2048 elements.

Does someone meet the same problem?

Hi

If you are a customer with paid RTC licenses then please open an APAR for this. It is a bug in the ISPF client. If you are not then let me know and I will open up a defect in RTC to capture this.

Our recommendation for many varied performance reasons is have no more than 500 artifacts (files) in a single component. The example you have given of 2500 files in a single folder is going to cause performance issues for you. We recommend that you take the opportunity while moving source into the RTC SCM to understand, embrace, and leverage the way that the RTC product is designed to be used. Look at how you can use components and projects to group source. By just blindly mapping what you currently have stored in PDSE's on the manframe today means that you are loosing an opportunity to improve your source code management.... as well as hitting performance issues with various operations such as load and build.
