IT42053: "CDR MODIFY REPLICATE --CASCADEREPL Y|N" NEARLY INEFFECTIVE

APAR status

• Closed as new function.

Error description

• For turning on or off a replicate's cascaderepl attribute, 'cdr
  modify replicate' offers the '--cascaderepl y|n' option, same as
  'cdr define replicate'.  You'd use this, for instance, on a
  template's replicates as template commands don't offer the
  option.
  
  The problem is this doesn't work properly:
  
  when turning on the option on a replicate that didn't have it on
  
   - cascade replication would not occur since the replicated
  table,
     wouldn't be flagged "TBLspace flagged for Cascade
  Replication"
     in 'oncheck -pt <db>:<tab> on the source
  
   - 'cdr list replicate' might not even show 'cascade'
      depending on the replicate's other attributes
  
  when turning the option off, on a replicated that had been
  created with '--cascaderepl y',
   - cascade replication would no longer occur
   - yet the table (oncheck -pt) would continue to show
     "TBLspace flagged for Cascade Replication"
