Error description

• The DB2 Administration Tool CM ANALYZE command JCL contains
  a hardcoded SPACE parm for the CAT ddname:
  //CAT      DD DSN=&&CATOUT,
  //            DCB=(LRECL=16800,RECFM=VB,DSORG=PS),
  //            SPACE=(TRK,(15,15),RLSE),
  //            UNIT=SYSDA,
  //            DISP=(NEW,PASS)
  which results in a ABENDx37 when larger volumes of changes
  are processed.
  

Local fix
