  ****************************************************************
  Image Copy function terminates with RC=08 and message DFS301A
  ( msgDFS301A ) when it is scheduled by the ICTYPE=B process of
  IMS Reorganization Expert and processing database is OSAM large
  format.
  The cause of the problem is that IMS HP Image Copy program that
  runs under IMS Reorganization Expert does not have a logic for
  checking z/OS level, and it handles the large format OSAM
  incorrectly.
