  This APAR enables to store several reports of IMS HP Prefix
  Resolution in the Output repository of IMS Tools Knowledge Base.
  
  The ITKBLOAD and ITKBSRVR control statements of the IMS HP
  Prefix Resolution FABYIN dataset are added to communicate to the
  IMS Tools Knowledge Base server. ITKBLOAD specifies the name of
  the load module library for IMS Tools Knowledge Base. ITKBSRVR
  specifies the name of the IMS Tools Knowledge Base server. The
  default value of the ITKBSRVR and ITKBLOAD control statements
  can be changed with site default options.
  
  The following reports of IMS HP Prefix Resolution can be stored
  in the Output repository of IMS Tools Knowledge Base:
  
   - FABYIN Control Statements report
   - Statistics report
   - Update Processing Summary report
  
  To store the reports in the Output repository of IMS Tools
  Knowledge Base, you need to set up the environment with the
  following steps:
  
  1. Install the IBM IMS Tools Knowledge Base product.
  2. Set up an IMS Tools Knowledge Base server.
  3. Register IMS HP Prefix Resolution to the registry of the IMS
     Tools Knowledge Base server by running the following job:
  
  //DREP     EXEC PGM=HKTAPRA0,PARM='ITKBSRVR=srvrname'
  //STEPLIB  DD  DISP=SHR,DSN=ITKB.SHKTLOAD ITKB LOAD LIBRARY
  //         DD  DISP=SHR,
  //             DSN=HPS.SHPSLMD0  PREFIX RESOLUTION LOAD LIBRARY
  //SYSPRINT DD  SYSOUT=*
  //SYUDUMP  DD  SYSOUT=*
  //SYSIN    DD  *
       ADDPROD  TABLE=FABYTITK PRODUCTID=DH
  
  4. If needed, add the definitions for the RECON.
  5. Confirm that IMS Tools Knowledge Base server is initialized
     before you run IMS HP Prefix Resolution jobs.
  6. Run IMS HP Prefix Resolution jobs with the ITKBSRVR and
     ITKBLOAD control statements.
  
  //FABYIN   DD *
   TYPE=LM
   UPDATE=YES
   ITKBSRVR=srvrname
   ITKBLOAD=ITKB.SHKTLOAD
  
     If you do not explicitly specify the ITKBLOAD control
     statement, IMS HP Prefix Resolution attempts to load
     an IMS Tools Knowledge Base module from the STEPLIB
     libraries.
  
  After completing these configuration procedures, you can use the
  ISPF user interface to view, print, and manage reports that are
  generated by IMS HP Prefix Resolution and that are stored in the
  IMS Tools Knowledge Base repository.
