My jcl has failed with S013 abend code. The reason code is 'E1' which states that "A magnetic tape data set with a block size greater than 32,760 is being opened for input or output extend processing, but the large block interface is not being used."
What i need to do so that the tape dataset uses large block interface?

That is what Sumit posted. . .
Sumit,
Please post the complete jcl for the abended step. Also post the complete diagnostic info rather than the bit you quoted. Describe the content of the problem file/volume.
You might also talk with your storage management people and make sure that the file you are trying to read is appropriate for the task at hand. It may be that you are trying to read data stored in a format incompatible with the program trying to read it.
