    * RECOMMENDATION: Apply corrective PTF when available          *
    ****************************************************************
    FREE PACKAGE with PLANMGMTSCOPE(INACTIVE) and INVALIDONLY(YES)
    should free phased-out copies regardless of the INVALIDONLY
    option.
    In this case, Db2 did not keep track of the qualified
    phased-out copies to be freed when there is no invalid
    previous/original copies to be freed.
    
    Additional Keywords: MSGDSNT299I
    

Problem conclusion

  • Db2 code has been modified to free the qualified phased-out
    copies regardless of the INVALIDONLY option when FREE PACKAGE
    with PLANMGMTSCOPE(INACTIVE) and INVALIDONLY(YES) is issued
    for packages without invalid previous or original copies.
