    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: This APAR adds support for the USE      *
    *                      PROFILE option for a REORG utility      *
    *                      operation that materializes DROP        *
    *                      COLUMN.                                 *
    *                                                              *
    ****************************************************************
    Previously, REORG USE PROFILE failed if REORG materialized a
    drop of a column that is referenced in the profile. As a
    workaround for this behavior, Object Compare removed USE
    PROFILE for REORG if a column is dropped from a table.
    Db2 APAR PH65845 fixed this problem, so USE PROFILE can be used
    in the REORG operation that materializes DROP COLUMN.
    With this APAR, Object Compare does not remove USE PROFILE for
    REORG if a column is dropped from a table.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The enhancement has been delivered.
