  HD Pointer Checker wrongly issues MSGFABP0960E for physically
  paired logical child (PLC) pointers in HALDB 8GB OSAM data sets
  when the following conditions are met:
  - The HALDBs have bidirectional physically paired logical
    relationships.
  - EPSs have values for PLC pointers less than 4G and values for
    LP pointers greater than 4G.
  - The Standard Check function (HASH=NO) is used.
  

Problem conclusion

• The FABPPSDA module has been modified to fix the error.
