  *                      generates ACB members by using DBDs     *
  *                      which have EXTERNALNAME on the XDFLD    *
  *                      statement. This feature is provided by  *

  *                      IMS V13).                               *

  * RECOMMENDATION: Apply the maintenance for this APAR.         *
  ****************************************************************
  Advanced ACBGEN generates ACB members by using DBDs which have
  EXTERNALNAME on the XDFLD statement. This feature is provided by
  IMS APAR PI05278(IMS V12) and PI13336(IMS V13).
  
  If Advanced ACBGEN utility without this APAR applied runs in the
  environments with IMS APAR PI05278(IMS V12) or PI13336(IMS V13),
  Advanced ACBGEN has a possibility to generate ACB members with
  incorrect address for EXTERNALNAME on the XDFLD statement. These
  members can not be used for the input of IMS Catalog Populate
  utility. It will cause any problems and any ABENDs can occur.
  
  However, Advanced ACBGEN utility with this APAR applied can
  generate correct ACB members in the IMS environment without IMS
  APAR PI05278(IMS V12) or APAR PI13336(IMS V13) applied. These
  members can be used for the input of IMS Catalog Populate
  utility.
