  This APAR enables Reorg Expert and FF DB Sensor to handle IMS
  catalog databases with alias prefix names other than DFSC.

Problem conclusion

Temporary fix

Comments

• Reorg Expert has been modified to specify a new DFS3CATQ
  parameter USERALIAS=YES to reorganize the aliased IMS catalog DB
  as provided in IMS APAR PH39094.
  To reorganize the aliased IMS catalog DB, you must apply the PTF
  for the following products that are running under Reorg Expert:
  - APAR PH64599 / PTF UI99666 of IMS High Performance Load 2.1
    (FMID=H1IM210)
  - APAR PH64215 / PTF UI99447 of IMS Index Builder 3.1
    (FMID=H22O310)
  
  Stand-alone and Integrated FF DB Sensor also has been modified
  to run against the aliased IMS catalog DB.
