Catalina Wei resolved OPENJPA-549.
----------------------------------

    Resolution: Won't Fix

In connection-less situation, we don't know the back-end DB2 version. so we
 cannot generate "Create Index" DDL unconditionally in connection-less 
situations.

The rational is that index on the primary key column is auto-created by DB2 
NT/Linux version 8 or later  and DB2 ZOS version 9.

    A manual "create index "on primary key column results in following error on 
DB2NT/Linux (but tolerated by DB2 ZOS version 9):
         SQL0605W  The index was not created because an index
         "SYSIBM.SQL080327142322600" with a matching definition already exists.
         SQLSTATE=01550


Index on primary key column is required in DB2 ZOS version 8 or earlier 
versions, the method createIndexIfNecessary() in DB2Dictionary is for this 
purpose.

We think the DDL generated by the MappingTool is likely needing modification 
for DB2 ZOS back-ends.
DDLs for table space creation, Auxiliary table creation required for BLOB/CLOB 
columns, are the examples that require user interventions.

In connection-less situations, we think it is OK  not generating the  Create 
Index DDL.

Since the NullPointerException problem is fixed in OPENJPA-555, no more fix 
will be done to this issue.
