  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: When performing ALC which will drop     *
  *                      and recreate a table,                   *
  *                      'Combine Steps' is set to NO,and the    *
  *                      tablespace is dropped prior to the      *
  *                      submission of conversion job ST3*.      *
  *                      Job log of ST3* contains a warning      *
  *                      message about the missing tablespace    *

  *                      tablespace name in the message is       *
  *                      wrong. Also the return code for the     *
  *                      job should not be rc=0 so to            *

  ****************************************************************
  The message 'ADBC195E TSNAME ts.db is not defined in DB2'
  in the conversion step should be 'ADBC195E TSNAME db.ts is
  not defined in DB2'. And the return code of the conversion
  job should not be rc=0 in order to warn the user that the
  message ADBC195E was issued.
  

Problem conclusion

• Program has been modified by exchanging the order of
  database name and tablespace name in message ADBC195E.
  Also the return code of the convert job has been changed to
  rc=8 when ADBC195E is issued for missing tablespace.
