PH16627: FIXED PROBLEMS W/EXPORT TO UNIX FILES. ADDRESSED THE INABILITY TO UPDATE TABLE VALUES AFTER RESIZING NULL INDICATOR ('N') COL

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Changed command line parameters for the export of data to a Unix
  file. The syntax of the export command is unchanged.  Removed
  the ability to resize the NULL indicator ('N') column in order
  to retain the ability to update table values. Before this
  update, changing the size of the 'N' column made it impossible
  to update values in the table.
  This release includes the following improvement
  1. ETIMP-2648 - Error while exporting data to the Unix file
  2. ETIMP-2913
  - Update is not available with customization 'N' column

  file for export" while exporting data to the Unix file (USS).
