QIFGIMQZ is an assembler program that is called by LINKMVS. If I supply
wrong value, for example ZONEINDEC instead of ZONEINDEX, I get an error
telling that the entrytype is wrong. It seems that GIMAPI is aware of the
ENTRY and SUBENTRY  values I pass to it.

What is the difference between DDDEF and XONEINDEX? if it is coded
correctly and recognized by GIMAPI?

Again, this z/os 2.3, I'll try it on z/os 2.5 but I believe this is not the
problem.
