  ****************************************************************
  IMS HP Image Copy which is scheduled by IMS Database Recovery
  Facility does not set RETPD or EXPDT value in the DYNALLOC macro
  ( SVC 99 ) parameter list when using the STACK option.
  
  When the stacked image copy data set is requested in IMS
  Database Recovery Facility, IMS HP Image Copy dynamically
  allocates a dummy data set for obtaining OS control block (JFCB)
  that is modified in the IMS HP Image Copy for handling tape
  stacking.  IMS HP Image Copy does not set the value in the RETPD
  or EXPDT parameter of DYNALLOC macro even if either of REPTD or
  EXPDT keyword is specified in the control statements of IMS
  Database Recovery Facility.  IMS HP Image Copy sets actual
  retention period in JFCB when processing each image copy data
  sets.
  
  As the result, neither RETPD nor EXPDT value is passed to the
  ACS routine from IMS HP Image Copy and ACS rejects the request
  of the allocation, if ACS routine is designed to be requested
  the retention period at allocation time of the new data set
  mandatory.
  

Problem conclusion

• By this APAR, IMS HP Image Copy has been modified to set RETPD
  or EXPDT value in DYNALLOC macro parameter list correctly, when
  it is scheduled by IMS Database Recovery Facility with the STACK
  option.
