PK43444: SEVERAL ERRORS IN THE GENERATED SAMPLE JOB TKD2SAM(OMDDXXXX) FOR HISTORY DATA SETS GREATER THAN 2GB.

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• The job header states that this job is used  to create a
  snapshot history data set that is greater than 16 MB. But the
  limit is 2 GB. Currently the size of the data set that is
  specified in ICAT is not put into the job but "MEGABYTES(xx)"
  instead. The xx should be replaced with the configured  size.
  Furthermore the job creates the event data set in addition to
  the Snapshot History data set. which should not be the case.

  The job header has to be updated and the step that created the
  event data set has to be removed from the generated sample
  

Problem conclusion

• The job header is updated, the size of the Snapshot history data
  set is expanded according to the size specified during
  interactive ICAT configuration and the step to create the event
  data set is removed from the generated JCL.
