PH64169: MULTIPLE FIXES IN SUBSYSTEM CLONING CATALOG PROCESSING CODE

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• This APAR addresses multiple problems in subsystem cloning
  catalog processing code.
  1. In certain scenarios, while performing mass updates to a
  catalog, a breakdown within catalog update protocols may lead to
  the subsequent corruption of the CATINDEX component.
  
  2. CATINDEX problems might occur when a SHAREOPTIONS(3 4)
  catalog has been recovered or reorganized, and RENAME or
  BCSCLEAN is subsequently used to delete a large number of
  catalog entries from the BCS that has an index at LEVELS=2 or
  higher. This problem is not applicable for RLS catalogs.
  
  3. Minor fixes in error reporting module.
