  ****************************************************************
  When tablespaces are to be renamed with a RENAMETS mask
  specified and the target is specified via 'Option 4  - Target
  is from the DB2 catalog and the objects are automatically
  selected based on the selected source' on panel GOC1 'Specify
  Compare Target', DB2 Object Comparison Tool will not drop the
  target tablespace and create it with the new name as specified
  in the RENAMETS mask.
  

Problem conclusion

• Problem has been resolved and in addition help panel GOC1H
  'HELP: Specify Compare Source and Target' description for
  Option 4 has changed from:
  
  4 - The definition of the objects will be automatically
      selected based on the objects selected for the source.
  
  to:
  
  4 - The definition of the objects will be automatically
      selected based on the objects selected for the source.
      If masking is used, Object Comparison Tool uses the source
      object names in combination with masks and renames that are
      to be applied to determine the target object names.
      Object Comparison Tool then extracts the target objects
      accordingly.
