Error description

• The server option DBDIAGPATHFSTHRESHOLD in server versions
  6.3.3.000 and higher, 7.1.x and 8.1.x  is not
  processed correctly by SETOPT, QUERY OPTION or when in the
  server options file (dsmserv.opt)
  
  For example:
  
  setopt DBDIAGPATHFSTHreshold xx
  
  ANR2020E SETOPT: Invalid parameter - DBDIAGPATHFSTHRESHOLD.
  ANS8001I Return code 3.
  
  whereas when the option string is shortened to the minimum
  amount of characters it is accepted, but will not be processed
  by the server:
  
  setopt DBDIAGPATHFSTH xx
  
  Do you wish to proceed? (Yes (Y)/No (N)) y
  ANR2119I The DBDIAGPATHFSTH option has been changed in the
  options file.
  
  
  QUERY OPTION DBDIAGPATHFSTHRESHOLD
  and
  QUERY OPTION DBDIAGPATHFSTH
  commands fail to display the currently set value  (default is
  20)
  
  ANR2034E QUERY OPTION: No match found using this criteria.
  
  When the option is placed in the server options file
  (dsmserv.opt)
  and the server is restarted, the option is not processed
  correctly and start up messages will report:
  
  ANR0902W Unsupported keyword or invalid value found in file
  C:\Program Files\Tivoli\TSM\SERVER1\dsmserv.opt.
