Error description

  • When a secondary index segment is defined and any of the index
    source segments are split into the prefix part and the data
    part, HD Pointer Checker should issue FABP2083W and stop the
    the index key checking. However, HD Pointer Checker issues not
    only FABP2083W but also FABP2020E and FABP2022E.

    * RECOMMENDATION: Apply the maintenance for this APAR.         *
    ****************************************************************
    This error occurs when all of the following conditions are
    satisfied:
    - IXKEYCHK=YES is specified in the PROCCTL data set
    - One or more index source segments are split into the prefix
      and the data part
    - The data set group of database having the split index source
      segment also has the another index source segment of
      secondary index database.
    Because the RBA of index pointer points to the prefix part and
    differs from the RBA of the data part, HD Pointer Checker cannot
    validate whether the key value in the data part is pointed
    correctly from the index pointer.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The following modules are changed to remove the split index
    source segment from the index key checking correctly:
     FABPPSDA FABPSDA0 FABPXCTL
