Problem conclusion

• The steps which check if the data value is larger than the Max

  The modified fields are following.
  
   - DOVF S/D in FREESPACE ANALYSIS
   - DOVF MAX in FREESPACE ANALYSIS
   - IOVF S/D in FREESPACE ANALYSIS
   - IOVF MAX in FREESPACE ANALYSIS
   - SDEV of ACTUAL LENGTH in DB RECORD PROFILE ANALYSIS
   - MAX of DOVF ONLY in DB RECORD PLACEMENT ANALYSIS
   - MIN of DOVF ONLY in DB RECORD PLACEMENT ANALYSIS
   - MAX of IOVF ONLY in DB RECORD PLACEMENT ANALYSIS
   - MIN of IOVF ONLY in DB RECORD PLACEMENT ANALYSIS
  
  APAR PK42116 is associated with this APAR. The following fields
  have been already modified in APAR PK42116.
