Notes:

Severity Messages are reported at three SEV states which are controllable through the SEV parameter. They can be excluded from the report with the NOPSEV parameter.

SEV 3 messages are serious and require immediate attention.
SEV 2 messages indicate changes to be made when the file is next loaded.
SEV 1 messages are minor, but require investigation.

SEV 3-03 for FILE.1.IN.NEED.OF.TUNING indicates that the file has been defined with a non-zero FRSP CI value, but the control interval is not large enough to reserve any usable free space.

SEV 3-12 for FILE.2.IN.NEED.OF.TUNING indicates that the number of index EXCPS is at least twice the number of data EXCPS.

Fixing either of the above is easy using CBLVCAT's tuning recommendations. See the Tuning example which follows.
