PH39224: ADBTEP2 MAY TREAT RELATED DB2 UTILITY STATEMENTS AS INDEPENDENT AND IGNORE OPTIONS

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• ADBTEP2 has a function to run Db2 utilities directly based on
  the input it is given.  However, the way input is formatted may
  cause ADBTEP2 to run related Db2 utility statements as though
  they were completely independent.  As a result, various options
  may be potentially ignored when the utility is executed.

  ****************************************************************
  APAR PH34007 enhanced the processing of Db2 DIAGNOSE utility
  control statements so that ADBTEP2 recognizes statements, such
  as DIAGNOSE TYPE(xxx), that are intended to apply to another
  utility.  This APAR further extends that code to recognize
  additional variations in the format of DIAGNOSE statements.
