    When SYSTABLES.TSNAME is ignored, a blank table space name is
    generated.  If executed, the user will receive a SQLCODE -104/
    SQLCODEN104.
    
    Also found:
    New triggers are not reported if the report option 'Only
    changed objects' on panel GOC5RO 'Specify Compare Reporting
    Options' has been chosen.  These triggers are correctly
    reported in the "COMPARISON SUMMARY REPORT", but missing
    from the "OBJECT COMPARISON REPORT".
    

Problem conclusion

  • Code change will generate the correct tsname in the comparison
    report.
