Problem conclusion

• The packaging has been updated to not change the LRECL
  when the PTF is applied or accepted.
  ++HOLD for PH35668
  If the ADSNLOAD or SDSNLOAD data set has an LRECL of 80 do
  the following:
  1.Allocate a new dataset with LRECL=0
  2.Use IEBCOPY with COPYMOD INDD=DDA,OUTDD=DDB where INDD points
    to the bad dataset and OUTDD is the new allocated dataset
    with LRECL=0
  3.STOP all DB2 which keep a lock on ADSN-/SDSNLOAD (make sure
    there are no locks on SDSNLOAD)
  4.rename old LOAD-LIB with LRECL=80 to xxx
  5.rename new LOADLIB with LRECL=0 to old name
  6.RESTART Db2.
