  ****************************************************************
  This APAR provides the following three new functions:
  
  1. Support IBM IMS Database Solution Pack for z/OS, V1.2
     (5655-S77).
  
    HDPC supports the Integrated DB Sensor function. This APAR
    must be installed to run the full-function Database Sensor in
    the following environment:
     - HD Pointer Checker job
     - Single-step HASH Checking in the HP Image Copy job
  
    In order to support the Integrated DB Sensor function, the
    following new JCL procedures and the following new options are
    added to the PROC statement of the PROCCTL data set:
  
    New JCL procedures:
    - FABPC
    - FABPCD
    - FABPCM
    - FABPCMD
    - FABPCTA
    - FABPCTAM
  
    New options:
    - SENSOR=YES|NO
        Specify whether to store sensor data in the ITKB Sensor
        Data repository.
    - SENSOR_HOME=YES|NO
        Specify whether to collect the sensor data elements
        related to root segment distributions.
    - TOSIXCFGRP=TOSI xcf group name(TOIxxxxx)|*NO
        Specify whether to monitor the latest VSAM statistics of
        online database data sets by using IMS Tools Online System
        Interface.
    - ADXCFGRP=Autonomics Director XCF group name|*NO
        Specify whether to send notification to Autonomics
        Director.
  
    When you want to use the Integrated DB Sensor function,
    - Use the new procedures
    - APF-authorize all the STEPLIB libraries
    - Specify the new options to the PROC statement.
  
    For details about the new JCL procedures and the new options,
    see documentation updates on IMS Tools library site.
  
    For details of DB Solution Pack and Database Sensor, see the
    following documents:
    - IBM IMS Database Solution Pack for z/OS Overview and
      Customization (SC19-3284-00)
    - IBM IMS Solution Packs Database Sensor User's Guide
      (SC19-3283-00)
  
  2. SPMN called from HDPC is enhanced to monitor the latest space
     utilization of VSAM data sets of online databases.
  
    SPMN called from HDPC can monitor the latest space utilization
    of VSAM data sets of online full-function databases by using
    IMS Tools Online System Interface. To use this function, one
    of the following products is required:
    - IBM IMS Tools Base for z/OS, Version 1 Release 1: IMS Tools
      Online System Interface (5655-V93) that has APAR PM17030 and
      PM21167 applied
    - IMS Tools Online System Interface in IBM Tools Base for z/OS
      Version 1 Release 2 (5655-V93) or later
  
    When you want to monitor online database VSAM data sets,
    - Use the following new procedures
       - FABPC
       - FABPCD
       - FABPCM
       - FABPCMD
       - FABPCTA
       - FABPCTAM
    - APF-authorize all the STEPLIB libraries
    - Specify the new option TOSIXCFGRP= to the PROC statement
      and SPMN=YES to the OPTION statement.
  
    For more details, see documentation updates on IMS Tools
    library site.
  
  3. SPMN supports non-VSAM data sets allocated on EAV.
  
    SPMN is enhanced to support non-VSAM data sets allocated on
    the EAV.
    SPMN can show the correct reports about non-VSAM data sets,
    including OSAM data sets of an IMS database, that are
    allocated on EAV.
