Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• The fast recovery image copy is newly supported in HP Image
  Copy (HPIC) V4. It is created when FASTIC=(....,COPY) is
  specified to the ICEIN statement. HD Pointer Checker does not
  recognize the data set as an image copy, and issues an
  ABENDU3575 with message FABP3575E.

  * RECOMMENDATION: Apply the maintenance for this APAR.         *
  ****************************************************************
  The Fast Recovery image copy has a different format from the
  standard image copy. It is the same format as the database
  data set.  However, HD Pointer Checker attempts to open the
  Fast Recovery image copy data set as a standard image copy
  format.
  This APAR changes HD Pointer Checker to process the Fast
  Recovery image copy data set with the correct format when
  DATASET=IMAGECOPY is specified in the DATABASE statement
  in the PROCCTL data set.
  
  In addition, this APAR fixes an error that MSGFABP1365I
  shows an incorrect data set name.

  ADD:
   The HD Pointer Checker accepts the following image copy types
   as input to the database data set:
  
   - A batch image copy
   - A compressed batch image copy taken with ICE or HPIC
   - An SMSNOCIC image copy

   This optional input data set is an IMS database data set. There
   is one DD statement for each HISAM, index(the HIDAM index or
   the secondary index), HDAM, HIDAM, PHDAM, PHIDAM, or PSINDEX
   database data set to be processed. You must use the ddname that
   is specified in the DBD. The actual data set can be a real
   database, an image copy, an image copy compressed with IMS
  |Image Copy Extensions for OS/390, a Fast Recovery image copy
  |taken with High Performance Image Copy for z/OS, or an image
   copy taken with the IMS Database Image Copy 2 utility.

  ADD:
  |FABP2113E INCORRECT DATA SET: dsname IS SPECFIED IN DD: ddname
  |
  |  Explanation: A real database data set is allocated in the
  |  DD ddname when DATASET=IMAGECOPY is specified in the PROCCTL
  |  data set.
  |  System Action: Processing stops.
  |  Programmer Response: Specify a correct image copy data set
  |  name to HD Pointer Checker JCL. Or, if you want to use the
  |  latest image copy data set, the ddname DD is not required.
  |  Remove the ddname DD and specify the RECON data sets to
  |  the HD Pointer Checker JCL, and rerun the HD Pointer Checker
  |  job.
  |  Problem Determination: Check the ddname DD statement in the
  |  HD Pointer Checker JCL and the DATABASE statement in the
  |  PROCCTL data set.
