(CC: H390-MVS, H390-VM)

I'm posting this question to the main Hercules group, but am also cross-
posting it to H390-MVS and H390-VM too in the hope that someone on one of
these groups will be able to help me.

Basically I need to create some dummy data in a very specific format on a
3390 test volume, and I'd rather not have to manually write a program to
do it, since it's a one-time-shot kind of deal. That is to say, once done,
I'll probably never need to do it again.

Here's the gist of it:

*
1951898214

I need to write 2 tracks worth of data. The first track needs to have 12
records, with each record being 4K (4096 bytes) in size. The second track
needs to have less than 12 records (say, only 3 records) on it, each one
also being 4K (4096 bytes) in size.

Does z/OS or z/VM, etc. have any type of existing utility/tool to do this
for me? Some kind of test data generator or "dataset" initialization tool
maybe? Can is possibly be done with a simple Rexx script maybe?

HELP!

Thanks.
