  1. IF A USER DOES NOT USE UNIQUE GDG NAMING CONVENTIONS FOR
  IMAGE COPY DATA SETS, THE RE21 JOBNAME - IMAGE COPY/REORG/IMAGE
  COPY DATABASES - WILL NOT APPEAR IN THE LIST OF AVAILABLE JOBS.
  THE TWO IMAGE COPY JOBS REQUIRE UNIQUE DATA SET NAMES.
  
  2. IF THE USER ENVIRONMENT DOES NOT HAVE THE HP LOAD, RELOAD OR
  INDEX BUILDER TOOLS INSTALLED, ANY OF THE REORG JOBS WILL NOT
  REORGANIZE OR REBUILD SECONDARY INDEX DATABASES. HOWEVER, THE
  THE SECONDARY INDEX DATA SETS ARE DELETED AND REDEFINED.
  

Problem conclusion

• 1. A NOTE HAS BEEN ADDED TO THE HELP PANEL FOR THE IC DATA SET
  NAMING PANEL, IDLSOPT3, ABOUT UNIQUE DATA SET NAMES AND THE
  AVAILABLE JOBS IN THE RUN JOBS LIST.
  NOTE: TO RUN JOBS, SUCH AS IC/REORG/IC, THAT INCLUDE TWO IMAGE
  COPIES, YOU MUST USE GDG (G) DATA SETS TO INSURE UNIQUE DATA SET
  NAMES.
  2. THE HISAM UNLOAD AND RELOAD SECONDARY INDEX JCL HAS BEEN
  ADDED TO REORG JOBS IF USERS DO NOT HAVE THE HP UNLOAD, LOAD OR
  INDEX BUILDER TOOLS INSTALLED AND SET FOR THE CSID GROUP.
