  When performing an online compare, RACF error messages are
  displayed after hitting the F3 key to exit ISREDDE2 that
  displays the SYSPRINT data set to report the compare result.
  

Problem conclusion

• The program has been corrected to change the disposition from
  'SHR, CATALOG' to 'SHR, KEEP' for the DD names SRC2IN, SRC2OUT,
  TGT2IN and TGT2OUT data set allocations when performing an
  online compare.
