Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  USERS AFFECTED:
  users on all platforms.
  ****************************************************************
  PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
  User has set SKIP_INDEX_MAINTENANCE=YES in his job.  This made
  loader return a waring after successful loading of data.
  Unfortunately operator was ignoring this warning state only when
  it is expecting to rebuild indexes, which is not the case.
  ****************************************************************
  RECOMMENDATION:
  use patch provided.
  ****************************************************************
  

Problem conclusion

• When loader returned a waring status (error code 2), all we
  need to see is whether there are any records rejected and placed
  in the bad records file. If this file is not present, we can
  safely conclude load is successful.
