Problem summary

  • ****************************************************************
    * USERS AFFECTED: Users of the DB2 Object Comparison Tool for  *
    *                 z/OS.                                        *
    ****************************************************************
    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: In DB2 Object Compare when 'Single      *
    *                      Compare Job' is set to NO, the members  *
    *                      are generated using fixed prefixes      *
    *                      causing the job names to not clearly    *
    *                      indicate in what order they should be   *
    *                      run.                                    *
    ****************************************************************
    * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
    ****************************************************************
    Job prefixes are dynamic by type, source and target, and are
    incremented for each step. An example would be the member
    containing the actual compare step which would always have a
    prefix of T03.  If this job were to be the second job to be
    run on the target, it should have a T02 prefix.
    

Problem conclusion

Temporary fix

Comments

  • Problem has been resolved.  There is no need for the user to

    maintenance.
