Error description
The DB2 Administration Tool for z/OS' Tools Customizer based install does not explain on panel CCQPDB2 'DB2 Parameters' that specifying a value for the 'DB2 load library' under the 'DB2 Libraries' section will result in the template ADBCUST job containing a value for the :bl2llib nick tag. When generating utility jobs that use the DB2-supplied JCL procedure DSNUPROC, DB2 Admin sets the symbolic parameter LIB to the second library that is specified on this tag. This will result in the error IEFC657I THE SYMBOL LIB WAS NOT USED if the DSNUPROC does not have a LIB coded.
Local fix
Do not specify the libraries on panel CCQPDB2.
