APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • When a Job Name contains the character '%', the DDL generated to
    create the mapping table may contain an invalid value for the
    database name.  The problem occurs when multiple utility jobs
    are generated and appears in the second and subsequent jobs that
    are generated.  The '%' character is not valid for a Job Name.
    This should produce an error indicating that the Job Name is
    invalid.
    

Local fix

  • Remove the '%' character from the Job Name provided to the
    build.
