    To help with the migrations and coexistence of IBM Db2
    Analytics Accelerator for z/OS(IDAA) version 7 and version 8
    accelerators, Db2 z/OS subsystem parameter QUERY_ACCEL_OPTIONS
    option 8,10, and 11 is modified as the following:
      Option 8 FAVOR NEW ACCELERATOR_TYPE:
        Remove the warning message: "Important: FAVOR NEW
              ACCELERATOR_TYPE is ignored if option 11, USE ONLY
              NEW ACCELERATOR_TYPE, is set to YES."
        Change NO explanation to: "Specifies that in a Db2
              environment that includes both a latest version
              accelerator server and an older version accelerator
              server, statements that are eligible to be
              accelerated on either of the accelerator servers are
              sent to the older version accelerator server."
        Change YES explanation to: "Specifies that in a Db2
              environment that includes both a latest version
              accelerator server and an older version accelerator
              server, statements that are eligible to be
              accelerated on either of the accelerator servers are
              sent to the latest version accelerator server."
      Option 10 BALANCE WORKLOAD BETWEEN VERSIONS:
        Remove the warning message: "Important: BALANCE WORKLOAD
              BETWEEN VERSIONS is ignored if option 11, USE ONLY
              NEW ACCELERATOR_TYPE, is set to YES."
      Option 11 USE ONLY NEW ACCELERATOR_TYPE:
        remove the warning message: "Important: When option 11 is
              set to YES, the following options, if specified, are
              ignored: 8: FAVOR NEW ACCELERATOR_TYPE 10: BALANCE
              WORKLOAD BETWEEN VERSIONS"
    
    For behavior involving IDAA V8 server, this Apar requires a
    future IDAA release.
