HAA - PBR containing XML generated REORG that abended because XML running at the same time as an index in the base table containing the XML column in two separate jobs

Base table has index:

Name Schema T DB Name TS Name Cols Rows Chks

* * * * * * * *

------------------ -------- - -------- -------- ------ ----------- ----

MASTER_TRANS_MTR ZAP2 T DZAP2QR1 SQR1MTR 17 10 0

XQR14MTR

Column Name Seq No O Col Type Length Scale Null Def FP Col Card

* * * * * * * * * *

------------------ ------ - -------- ------ ------ ---- --- -- -----------

MST_TRANS_TX 1 XML 14 0 N N N -2

RGWKY002 is reorging DZAP2QR1.XMAS0000 while RGWKY019 is reorging base table index XQR14MSTR contain XML column. This resulted in RGWKY019 abending with:

DSNU1033I 159 02:12:58.22 DSNUGULM - PROCESSING LIST ITEM: INDEXSPACE DZAP2QR1.XQR14MTR

DSNU180I - 159 02:12:58.22 DSNUGUCC - UTILITY IS NOT COMPATIBLE WITH THE REORG TABLESPACE UTILITY

UTILID = RGWKY002.RGZAP2, OBJECT = DZAP2QR1.XQR14MTR

When base has XML column in index, it must be generated in the job that has the XML TS.
