  ****************************************************************
  The Image Copy function can wait and retry dynamic allocation
  of database data sets when they are already allocated by
  another application with the DISP=OLD option. A new keyword
  DYNA_RETRY is provided to enable this function.

  > Control statements and keywords
   > DYNA_RETRY keyword
  
  | DYNA_RETRY keyword
  | The DYNA_RETRY keyword specifies whether IMS HP Image Copy
  | retries to allocate database data sets dynamically when
  | dynamic allocation fails due to database data sets
  | already being allocated by another application with
  | DISP=OLD. The keyword also specifies the maximum number
  | of retries and the retry interval.

  | FORMAT
  |   DYNA_RETRY=N|Y|(Y,nn,ss)
  |                    +------------------ N ------------+
  | >> DYNA_RETRY= ----+------------------ Y ------------+-><
  |                              +-  5 -+     +-  5 -+
  |                    +-(- Y -,-+- nn -+--,--+- ss -+-)-+
  
  
  | When you specify Y, you can omit nn and ss parameters as
  | follows:
  |   DYNA_RETRY=(Y,nn)
  |   DYNA_RETRY=(Y,,ss)
  | Y
  |   Retries dynamic allocation of database data sets.
  | N
  |   Does not retry dynamic allocation of database data sets.
  | nn
  |   Specifies the maximum number of retries in the range of
  |   1 - 99.
  |   This value is effective when the first operand is Y. If you
  |   do not specify the maximum number of retries, the maximum
  |   number of retries is set to 5.
  | ss
  |   Specifies the number of seconds, in the range of 1 - 99, to
  |   wait before IMS HP Image Copy retries dynamic allocation.
  |   This value is effective when the first operand is Y. If you
  |   do not specify this value, the retry interval is set to 5
  |   seconds.
  
  | Default value
  |   If DYNA_RETRY is not specified, the default is DYNA_RETRY=N.
  |   If DYNA_RETRY=Y  is specified, the default is
  |   DYNA_RETRY=(Y,5,5).
