PK56472: MODIFY SYNTAX IN GENERATED JCL INCORRECTLY OMITS 'DELETE AGE' OPTION IF OBJECT PROFILE CONTAINS ONLY DSNDB01.SYSUTILX

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• If the object profile contains only DSNDB01.SYSUTILX, the MODIFY
  syntax in the generated job incorrectly omits the ' DELETE
  AGE(7) ' option. When only a SYSUTILX object exists, the MODIFY
  options are not moved into ISPF variables.  Running the
  generated job results in syntax error due to the missing MODIFY
  options.
  .
  If other objects exist, their modify options are carried to the
  SYSUTILX control cards which is why MODIFY options sometimes get
  generated.
