Problem conclusion

Temporary fix

Comments

• By this APAR, the OVERFLOW= and PRIMEDB= keywords on DATABASE
  statements in the PROCCTL data set are changed from required to
  optional. You can omit these keywords when you run HD Pointer
  Checker stand-alone jobs for HISAM databases with overflow data
  sets or index databases.
  If you omit these keywords, HD Pointer Checker sets the overflow
  ddnames of the HISAM and index databases, and the dbdnames of
  the primary databases that are indexed by the index databases.
  
  This enhancement is being implemented as a result of RFE ID
  44390.

  Keywords
  The following keywords can be specified on the DATABASE
  statement:
  DB=dbdname
    Specifies the dbdname (as coded in your DBD) of the HISAM,
    HIDAM index or the secondary index databases, the HDAM, the
    HIDAM, the PHDAM, PHIDAM, or the PSINDEX to be processed.
    This keyword is a required keyword.
  :
  OVERFLOW=ddname
    Specifies the ddname (as coded in your DBD) of the ESDS of
    the HISAM data set group, or the index database.
    You can omit this keyword when HD Pointer Checker is runs as
    a stand-alone job. In this case, HD Pointer Checker sets the
    ddname of the ESDS of the HISAM database or the index
    database.
    Abbreviations OFLOW and OVFLW can be used for OVERFLOW.
  PRIMEDB=dbdname
    Specifies the dbdname of the primary database indexed by the
    HIDAM index or the secondary index database to be processed.
    You can omit this keyword when HD Pointer Checker is runs as
    a stand-alone job. In this case, HD Pointer Checker sets the
    dbdname of the primary database indexed by the HIDAM index or
    the secondary index database.
