  The Db2 installation panel UPDATE DB2 - SELECTION MENU
  (DSNTIPB) is used by the CLIST when it is run in UPDATE mode,
  allowing you to access all the installation panels, view the
  values that you specified during installation or migration,
  and update certain values that you specified during
  installation or migration.
  
  Currently, the panel DSNTIPB is not up-to-date:
  o An option to select the ACTIVATE A FUNCTION LEVEL panel
    (DSNTIP00) is missing
  o Option 27 APPLICATION PROGRAMMING DEFAULTS 3 is pointing
    to an obsolete panel (DSNTIP41)
  

Problem conclusion

• Panel DSNTIPB is modified as follows:
  o Option 4 ACTIVATE A FUNCTION LEVEL is added immediately
    after option 3 DEFINE GROUP OR MEMBER
  o Option 27 APPLICATION PROGRAMMING DEFAULTS 3 is removed
  o Option numbers are renumbered accordingly
