  This APAR fixes the following problems that Space Monitor (SPMN)
  prints wrong values in the report fields:
  1. When SPMN monitors a non-VSAM data set and the allocated
     space on a volume is equal to or larger than 4 gigabytes, the
     wrong value is printed in the %USE field in the SPACE
     ANALYSIS BY DATA SET report, the SUMMARY OF DATA SETS BY
     VOLUME report, and the SPACE MONITOR EXCEPTION report.
  2. When SPMN monitors a non-VSAM data set and the usable free
     space for the data set is equal to or larger than 4
     gigabytes, the wrong value is printed in the %FSP field in
     the SPACE ANALYSIS BY DATA SET report and the SPACE MONITOR
     EXCEPTION report.
  3. The wrong value is printed in the USED SPACE field in the
     SPACE MONITOR GRAPH report under all of the following
     conditions:
     - The HISTORY DD statement is coded in the SPMN JCL.
     - SPMN monitors OSAM data sets of HDAM, HIDAM, PHDAM, or
       PHIDAM databases.
     - The usable free space for the data set is equal to or
       larger than 4 gigabytes.
