    This APAR modifies the HD Pointer Checker (HDPC) and Space
    Monitor (SPMN) template JCLs FAB$TP01, FAB$TP02, and FAB$TP03
    for use with IMS management of ACBs. These template JCLs are
    used in the Run IMS Utilities function of IMS Administration
    Tool.
    
    To make the changes in these template JCLs effective, perform
    the following tasks:
    - Apply the maintenance of IMS Administration Tool APAR PH67637/
      PTF UO04658.
    - Run the job "product_hlq.SHPSSAMP(FABPITKB)".
    - Execute IMS Administration Tool ISPF interface and register
      the name of the user library that contains the IMS Catalog
      Definition exit routine (DFS3CDX0) as the variable USERLIB, if
      you use DFS3CDX0.
    Refer to "Register IMS Administration Tool variables for
    IMS-managed ACBs" in IMS Administration Tool V1.1 user's guide
    for details.
