Local fix
Problem summary
USERS AFFECTED: COBOL for AIX users with STL relative and indexed files who use DELETE may be affected by this issue. PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: DELETE could report FS=20 or FS2=22 on DELETE for a RELATIVE file; or see an index error. Deleting a relative record that crossed a buffer boundary was flawed, as was an index merge that deleted the tree's root page (this affects relative and indexed files).
Problem conclusion
The above mentioned issues have been corrected.
Temporary fix
