  This APAR provides the enhancement.
  
  When the target of an object comparison is automatically
  selected, you can specify that a warning message be issued
  if the scope is insufficient. This message warns you that
  objects that exist only in the target might be dropped.
  
  - Panel GOC5 'Generate Compare Jobs' is updated with a new
    'Scope Warning Messages' field. You can specify Yes or No.
    No is the default.
  - A new warning message is added:
    ADB7353W: Table space dbname.tsname is not specified in
              the source for the comparison. Consider including
              this table space dbname.tsname in the source.
  - A new CM batch parameter is added:
    scope_warning:
      Specifies whether to issue a warning message if the
      target of an object comparison operation is
      automatically selected, and the source is not a table
      space. This message warns that objects that exist only
      in the target might be dropped.
    values:
      Y: Message ADB7353W is issued for this situation. This
         message is issued regardless of the value of the Suppress
         DROP of objects field on the Generate Compare Jobs (GOC5)
         panel.
      N: No message is issued.
    default: N
