Db2 12 function level support

When you activate new Db2 12 function levels in a Db2 subsystem or data sharing group, enhancements might become available that impact Db2 Cloning Tool.

The levels of function level support are defined as follows:
Tolerated
The product works as it did on a previous release or function level of Db2 for z/OS, but it does not support the new features of this function level.
Supported
The product supports most, but not necessarily all, of the new function-level features that IBM deems the most significant for this product.

The following function levels are tolerated or supported by Db2 Cloning Tool and are provided with the corresponding PTF, if any. For more information about a specific function level, click the link in the "Db2 function level" column.
