Problem conclusion


    

  • Aliases  remained  in  the catalog after parent objects
were removed.  Customer  compared on the database level
(DDL to catalog) and aliases were not dropped.
.*
One  solution  is  to  use automatic  target  selection
based on source objects. (see pk10600).
.*
As an alternative solution a condition  has  been added
to suppress error -204 (object doesn't exists) and DROP
ALIAS statement before adding new alias.
