    * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
    ****************************************************************
    The DB2 Administration Tool, panel ADB25 titled 'Utility
    generation using LISTDEFs', does not support the table format
    of the LISTDEF control table created by DSN.SDSNSAMP(DSNTIJCC).
    
    DSNACC.UTLISTE is the default name created by
    DSN.SDSNSAMP(DSNTIJCC) but can be customized by changing the
    DB2 CREATE statements before submitting the job.  Message
    ADB737E will include the actual name of the LISTDEF control
    table.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The program that checks the format of the table is now modified
    to support the DSN.SDSNSAMP(DSNTIJCC) version of LISTDEF
    control table.
    
    Users of the DB2 Administration Tool for z/OS will need to
    use the option 'UL- Upgrade LISTDEF control table' on panel
    ADB25 'Utility generation using LISTDEFs and TEMPLATEs'
    to upgrade any existing LISTDEF definitions.
    
    Users who have successfully used the 'UL' option on panel
    ADB25 for APAR PM44550 will need to do so again.
