PH67052: DDF PORT STATUS MESSAGES (DSNL519I OR DSNL523I) DO NOT DISPLAY FOR STARTED OR STATIC ALIAS PORTS DURING DDF STARTUP.

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Status of ports for an ALIAS do not show during DDF startup
  since the only message, DSNL314I, about a started ALIAS occurs
  only once during a Db2 startup.
  

Local fix

• Restart DDF for issue DSNL519I or DSNL523I messages.

  ****************************************************************
  During a DDF startup, there are no DSNL519I or DSNL523I
  messages about the status of a port associated with a static
  or started dynamic alias. The only message about the status
  of an alias is DSNL314I which only appears during the very
  first DDF start that occurs after Db2 is started. During
  subsequent restarts of DDF (-STOP DDF followed by a -START
  DDF), the DSNL314I message will no longer appear unless a
  -MODIFY DDF ALIAS START|STOP|CANCEL command is issued against
  a dynamic alias.
  

Problem conclusion

• Db2 has been changed to issue port status messages (DSNL519I
  or DSNL523I) during the start of DDF for any static or started
  dynamic alias which were defined with a port and/or secure
  port value. The message explanations for messages DSNL519I
  and DSNL523I are being updated to correctly list the possible
  port-type values for DSNL519I and DSNL523I. The port-type
  value of a secure port is displayed as SECURE PORT and the
  port-type value of the resync port is displayed as
  RESYNC PORT. In addition, the explanation for message DSNL314I
  is being updated to explain why the DSNL314I message is only
  issued once during a Db2 startup.
  
  The online product documentation for Db2 13 is updated
  with the changed message explanations for the following
  messages:
  - DSNL314I
  - DSNL519I
  - DSNL523I
