APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • In some cases using log-forward mode for the detail report, more
    DB2 logs (further back in time) are attempted for access than is
    necessary. If these unneeded logs have been rolled off
    (uncatgled/deleted), the product may end with an error message
    indicating the log is no longer available, even though it is not
    actually needed.
