     Name       : HCPDGSBK
     Description: Directory generic string block
     DSECT      : DGSBK
     Function   : The directory generic string block contains a
                  character string created by a directory
                  statement processed by HCPDIR.
     Located by : On DASD - DVMDWDAD/DVMDWDSP fields of HCPDVMD
                  DVMDUDAD/DVMDUDSP fields of HCPDVMD
                  DVMDRDAD/DVMDRDSP fields of HCPDVMD
                  In storage - DVMDWDAD field of HCPDVMD
                  DVMDUDAD field of HCPDVMD
                  DVMDRDAD field of HCPDVMD

     Comments   : This block is used to contain various
                  string (text) fields in the object directory.
                  The DGSLABEL field identifies which string a
                  specific instance of this block contains.
                  An "in-storage" copy of this block may contain
                  data from the online directory or an ESM.
