PI18068: DB2 ADMIN TOOL FOR Z/OS PANEL FLOW: END (F3) RETURNS TO PANEL ADB21 'SYSTEM CATALOG' RATHER THAN PANEL ADB21C 'COLUMNS'

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• DB2 Administration Tool for z/OS: When 'Column' is selected
  from panel ADB21 'System Catalog', for most line commands
  used from panel ADB21C 'Columns', if either pressing F3 or
  'No rows returned', DB2 Admin returns to panel ADB21 'System
  Catalog' instead of ADM21C. With APAR PM71834 applied, if
  line command '/' is used first, then the other line commands
  return to panel ADB21C as expected.
  

Local fix

• Use line command '/' before any other line command.
