Problem conclusion

• With this PTF, additional settings and tooling are provided to
  support the availability of the IBM zERT Network Analyzer when
  using a limited number of Query Result Table partitions.
  
  Upgrading to V2R4 IBM zERT Network Analyzer
  --------------------------------------------
  For current users of the IBM zERT Network Analyzer on an older
  release of z/OS that plan to upgrade to z/OS V2R4, see
  documentation for upgrading the IBM zERT Network Analyzer
  plug-in from the following link:
  
  https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/node/6212122
  
  Report settings
  --------------------------------------------
  This PTF adds a REPORT SETTINGS section to the Application
  Settings panel to manage query results across concurrent IBM
  zERT Network Analyzer sessions.
  
  Report timeout value (minutes)
    - Default value: 60
    - The report timeout value in minutes for when the IBM zERT
      Network Analyzer closes an inactive report. A value of 0
      indicates that the report inactivity timer will be disabled,
      allowing a report to be available for the life of the users
      z/OSMF session.
  
  Maximum open reports per user
    - Default value: 0
    - This sets the maximum number of open reports allowed for
      each IBM zERT Network Analyzer user. A value of 0 indicates
      that there is no open report limit for the user.
  
  Modifying the number of partitions
  --------------------------------------------
  This PTF introduces additional sample database schema tooling
  to change the number of partitions in the partition-by-range
  query result tables. Specifically, the following new members
  in the SYS1.SAMPLIB data set are provided:
  
  IZUZNAPT:
    This template generates DDL for changing the number of query
    result table partitions in a database that was defined using
    the IZUZNADT template (with fixed schema and table names).
  
  IZUZNAPA:
    This template generates DDL for changing the number of query
    result table partitions in a database that was defined using
    the IZUZNADA template (with ALIASes).
  
  Use the data set in conjunction with the sample IZUZNADG exec
  and a variable substitution input data set in the form shown in
  the sample IZUZNADI substitution input member.
