Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Customer is running the icmmrmdi job to delete objects in the
  items to be deleted table.  In some cases, the items to be
  deleted are migrated objects from ImagePlus.  The aysnc delete
  job is using theh Itemid field and not the URLADDRESS field
  which has the external object name of the migrated object.
  This is causing an OAM not found condition and the object was
  not deleted.
  
  The routine needs to be modified if the Itemid does not work try
  name in the URLADDRESS field.

  ---------------------------------
  ++HOLD(ACT)
  Users of DB2 Content Manager resource manager v8.3 must first
  apply APAR PK64318, which contains changes to both resource
  manager and to DB2 Information Integrator for Content. These
  changes are incorporated, in both cases, in v8.3 fix pack 9,
  which must be applied both on z/OS and on all clients
  accessing this resource manager before applying this PTF.
  ---------------------------------
  ++HOLD(ACT)
  Users of part-level versioning who also have data in the
  EXTOBJECTNAME column of library server tables such as
  ICMUT0030n001 must go to
  http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg24012036
  before applying this PTF to download and execute a required
  data cleanup utility. (External object name data could
  exist, for example, as a result of migration from ImagePlus
  or from pre-8.3 Content Manager releases, or as a result
  of certain third-party software products).
