PM01186: TARGET JOB DOESN'T START LAST PARTITION IF OVER 999

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• The target job does not compute the correct partition number for
  the dataset if the last dataset qualifier is B, C, D or E. The
  partition number is one less then it should be. This results in
  the last partition number (1000 or greater) not being started
  for all datasets with that large a partition number.
  The code has been changed to compute that B000 is partition
  1000, not 999; C000 is partition 2000 etc. All target job start
  for partitions with this large a partition number are correctly
  performed.
