  ****************************************************************
  This APAR enables HD Pointer Checker (HDPC) to print 'VER 15 REL
  2.0' on the 'IMS LEVEL' report field in the DMB Directory report
  when IMS version and release is 15.2.0.
  This IMS version and release is also set to the fields HIDIMSR
  and HIDIMSL in the HISTORY records when HISTORY=YES is
  specified. So, when the Export Utility of DB Historical Data
  Analyzer (DBHDA) exports the HISTORY data gathered after this
  PTF is applied, the IMS version and release is stored to the
  fields IMSVER and IMSVER2 in flat records.
  
  *************
  * Important *
  *************
  If HDPC is used in an IMS Database Reorganization Expert (RGE)
  job, the PTF of APAR PH45309 must be applied to RGE.
  If the PTF of APAR PH45309 is not applied to RGE and you run RGE
  jobs under the following conditions, HDPC prints the incorrect
  IMS LEVEL in the DMB directory report.
   - The PTF of IMS APAR PH14457 is applied to IMS
   - IMS version and release is 15.1
  In addition, the incorrect value of the IMS version and release
  is set to the HISTORY records when the HISTORY option is
  specified.
