APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • IMS/DB2 log records extract fine, but when trying to process the
    extract log file, it no longer correctly identifes the DB2 log
    records. It either flags them as unknown type ( code ) or
    incorrectly identifes them as an IMS log record type that
    happens to have the same identifier code.

    * USERS AFFECTED: Users of IMS Problem Investigator V2.3       *
    ****************************************************************
    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: DB2 records in a dynamic extract file   *
    *                      are not correctly identified and are    *
    *                      processed as IMS records                *
    ****************************************************************
    * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
    ****************************************************************
    IMS PI uses record/file heuristics to identify input record
    types, these heuristics are lost when a dynamic extract file
    is created which results in DB2 records not being correctly
    identified.
    

Problem conclusion

  • Place a record identifier in DB2 records that are extracted
    using the dynamic extract facility so that they may be
    subsequently reprocessed.
