    ****************************************************************
    The job #A0COMB generated by the IMS Tools Setup to combine all
    IMS Tools data sets into one data set ends with RC=08. This is
    because the data set specified by DD SATYBIN and the data sets
    specified by other DDs contain different types of members. This
    issue occurs when a Java environment is selected for the IMS
    SPUFI of IMS Administration Tool.
    

Problem conclusion

  • IMS Tools Setup has been fixed as follows:
    1. A new input field for binary files has been added to panel
    HKTQPAA3.
    2. A new combined data set "hlq.COMBBIN" for binary files is
    allocated.
    3. A new step has been added to job #A0COMB to copy the SATYBIN
    data set to "hlq.COMBBIN".
