  ****************************************************************
  A DRF job with an ADD IC command ended with message FRD6140A
  after a BPE error message BPE0003E was issued. The output image
  copy data set name contains 49 characters. However, the data set
   name that DRF allocates for the integrated auxiliary utility
  parameters for IMS HP Image Copy is 44 characters, which
  resulted in the BPE error.
  

Problem conclusion

• For integrated auxiliary utility parameters for IMS HP Image
  Copy, DSN parameter has been expanded from 44 characters to 54
  characters, and DSN2 parameter has been expanded from 44
  characters to 53 characters in accordance with the integrated
  auxiliary utility parameters for IMS HP Image Copy restrictions.
