Hi
Think Sx13 error occurs when LRECL of your JCL doesn't match your COBOL file size ie. the integer on RECORD CONTAINS clause and the integer on LRECL does not match.
Regarding Sx37 we have several errors like Sb37 Sd37 & Se37 where all denotes out of space condition.

Sx13 messages are caused by the dataset open command failing. As you may guess there are 16 types of this command. Each Sx13 abend will have a return code associated with it so to say you got a S813 abend is not enough.Sx37 error are 'end of volume' abends. This too has 16 possible permutations. B D & E versions are mentioned above but there are others and you will usually need the associated rc to diagnose the actual cause.

I have not came across the S13 but S37 is surely a space abend. It occurs mainly because if there is less cylinders available for a dataset. Then we have give more space in cyl.
