There probably have been several other replies to this, since I've been
away for a week, so please ignore this if nothing new is added:

HP announced almost 2 years ago, and have repeated on several occasions since
that they 'have no current plans to enhance DBChange/DBCPlus to support jumbo
datasets.  I suspect that DBCPlus' is simply not knowledgable of the newer
IMAGE version settings in the rootfile and as such, does not recognize the
rootfile as a valid IMAGE database.

I seem to recall hearing that there aren't any plans to update the
FLEXIBASE/IMAGE tool for jumbo sets as well.  But I would recommend checking
with your appropriate support organization for confirmation.

Currently the only database tools which offer support for jumbo datasets
are the 3rd-party tools DBGeneral and Adager.
