  ****************************************************************
  IQCSELCT programs for automatic checkpoint locator are changed
  to obtain IMS release from RECON data sets, if no //LOGIN DD is
  present in the JCL.
   Samples for RECOVERAB, RECOVERDM and REPROCESS JCL are changed
  to include the DD cards for all data sets used with automatic
  checkpoint locator.
   Please, check members IQCRCAB, IQCRCDM and IQCRPRS in install
  library hlq.SIQCSAMP.
  

Problem conclusion

• IQCSELCT automatic checkpoint locator programs and samples are
  changed to remove the requirement for model //LOGIN DD in case
  that IMS release for logs and IMS is the same, samples are
  updated to show all DD statements for automatic checkpoint
  locator.
