    ADDITIONAL PROBLEMS REPORTED BY BETA PMRS
    ****************************************************************
    1.) The LIU Function panels are not initialized with the DBDLIB,
        PSBLIB and ACBLIB specified during CS SETUP.
    2.) History data sets must be VSAM. If an existing non-VSAM
        data set name is entered as the History data set on panel
        IDL$UTIE, the user should be prompted to enter a new name.
    3.) If the Unload Data Set Option, 'Use GDGs' is set to 'N' the
        other Unload Options should be left blank.
    4.) The user cannot scroll and select DBDs from multiple screens
        on DBD Collection panel IDLSMAIR.
    5.) The Collect process tries to run CHANGE.DB SHARELVL commands
        on active DBDs. This is not allowed.
    6.) The Collect process does not check the ACBLIB for DBD
        members when the 'Check ACBLIB' option is selected.
    7.) Residual DBD data from prior collections may be included
        in the Collection Table.
    8.) HIDAM DBDs with non-INDEX LCHILD statements preceding the
        PRIMARY INDEX LCHILD statement are not handled correctly
        during Collection. The PRIMARY INDEX is set to a SECONDARY.
    9.) A missing EOF in the temporary Collection output data set
        can cause READ/WRITE errors that result in an ABEND001.
    10.) Changes are needed to support the RECOVGRP option of the
         DBDSGRP commands.
    11.) Changes are needed to resolve problems with RECON record
         LRECLS greater than 32760. A REPRO of the RECONS fails to
         a PS (Physical Sequential) file.
    12.) Users need a prompt to select only one CSID on start
         panel IDLP92 and only one DBDSGRP on Collect panels
         IDLSMAIP and IDLSMAIQ.
    13.) CS R310 users with OS/390 R210 or Z/OS releases lower than
         1.3 receive ICF Catalog errors for an invalid field during
         and internal listc command.
         CS R220 users with Z/OS releases lower than 1.3 or OS/390
         may also receive the same errors.
    

Problem conclusion

  • MODIFICATIONS MADE TO CORRECT ADDITIONAL PROBLEMS REPORTED BY
    PMRS.
    1.) The LIU function panels are now initialized with the DBDLIB,
        PSBLIB and ACBLIB specified during CS SETUP.
    2.) If an existing non-VSAM data set name is entered as the
        HISTORY data set on panel IDL$UTIE, the user is now prompted
        to either enter a different name or to delete the existing
        non-VSAM data set.
    3.) If the Unload Data Set Option, 'Use GDGs' is set to 'N' on
        either panel IDLSOPT0 or IDLSOPT1, the other Unload Options
        should be blank. The user is prompted to blank the fields
        if any data has been entered.
    4.) Users can now scroll and select DBDs from multiple screens
        on DBD Collection panel IDLSMAIR.
    5.) The Collection process now checks for active DBDs. If such
        activity is found, changes to the SHARELVL will not be made
        during the Collection CHANGE.DB command. The user will be
        prompted if such DBDs exist. An 'ACTIVE' field has been
        added to panels IDLSCTL2 and IDLSCTL3 to indicate the
        active DBDs.
    6.) The ACBLIB will be checked against the selected DBD list if
        the 'Check ACBLIB' field is set to 'Y' on panel IDLSOPT2.
        The user will be prompted if one of the selected DBDs is not
        a member of the ACBLIB and the Collection will stop.
    7.) Residual DBD data has been removed from the Collection Table
        for multiple collects.
    8.) Collection now correctly processes HIDAM DBDs with
        non-INDEX related LCHILD statements that precede the
        PRIMARY INDEX LCHILD statement.
    9.) An EOF has been added to the temporary Collection output
        data set to prevent READ/WRITE errors.
    10.) Changes have been added to support RECOVGRP. The changes
         implement error checking that should eliminate concern over
         mistakes selecting group members.
    11.) Changes have been made to resolve the problem with RECON
         records with a LRECL greater that 32760. Code now builds
         a KSDS copy of the RECONS. The KSDS is built for commands:
         BACKREn, REGSn, UCOPYREn and UREORGn.
    12.) Code and messages have been added to prompt users to select
         only one CSID on panel IDLP92 and only one DBDSGRP for
         Collection on panels IDLSMAIP and IDLSMAIQ.
    13.) New part, IDLRLST2, has been added to both CS R310 and
         CS R220 that is compatible with older releases of Z/OS and
         OS/390.
         Both Control Suite R220 and R310 users who are using
         Z/OS release 1.2, 1.1, or OS/390 R210 and below need to
         install this maintenance to prevent ICF Catalog READ
         errors.
