PK42714: CONTROL FILES: ALLOW FOR SEPARATE CONTROL FILES BETWEEN VARIOUS DB2 TOOLS

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as new function.

Error description

• In the past,  products could share or have separate control
  files.
  
  DB2 Recovery Expert for z/OS and DB2 Log Analysis Tool can share
  the same control file data set without interfering with each
  other.  DB2 Recovery Expert for z/OS was changed so that the RE
  z/OS DB2 Log Analysis Tool interface uses a unqiue record key
  and does not conflict with DB2 Log Analysis Tool.
  
  The DB2 Object Restore product has always relied on the user to
  configure DB2 Log Analysis Tool through the ALA interface and
  share the same PCF.  We do not believe this will change in the
  future because of the product design.
