PI33755: AFTER MANY MAINTAIN JOBS TO SPLIT PART(S) TOOLKIT DEFAULTS TO 2 AND CAUSES LOTS OF DBRC INFO TO ROLL OFF.

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• After many MAINTAIN jobs, to split part(s), toolkit defaults to
  2 and causes lots of DBRC information to roll off.
  This severely impacts recovery when we cannot go back easily to
  find ALL DBRC info for a DB or PART. We realize we can use
  INITPART to change values, but it is questionable why toolkit
  forces the minimum, and causes data loss.

Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  * USERS AFFECTED: All clients of IMS HALDB Toolkit V3R2.       *
  ****************************************************************
  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: MAINTAIN function can cause some DBRC   *
  *                      information to roll off for the new     *
  *                      partition.                              *
  ****************************************************************
  * RECOMMENDATION: Apply the maintenance for this APAR.         *
  ****************************************************************
  Since HALDB Toolkit uses defaults for GENMAX, DFLTJCL, ICJCL,
  OICJCL, RECOVJCL, RECOVPD, RECVJCL, and NOREUSE, MAINTAIN
  function to split partitions can cause some DBRC information to
  roll off for the new partitions.
  

Problem conclusion

• The following modules have been changed to inherit DBRC
  information from the first partition to the new partitions:
   IHCWTDB0, IHCWTDRC, IHCYDB11, IHCYDB12, IHCYDB13, IHCYRC11,
   IHCYRC12, IHCYRC13
