  ****************************************************************
  When the Object Compare job compares large volumes of DDL ( for
  example over 2.5 millions of lines of DDL which included over
  20000 number of views) with mask option, DSNHDECP exceeded the
  maximum use count and an abend906-08 is observed:
  
  CSV002I REQUESTS FOR MODULE DSNHDECP EXCEED MAXIMUM USE COUNT
  CSV028I ABEND906-08
  
  An additional unrelated issue is found. When using a CCSID
  which can not be converted to CCSID=37, the compare program
  terminates with an ADB3318E error message:
  
  ADB3318E >program name<: could not convert characters from
  CCSID(>source CCSID<) to CCSID(37).
  

Problem conclusion

• The ONCODE problem has been resolved.
  
  The additional unrelated issue for message ADB3318E has been
  resolved.  Warning message ADB3318W will be issued instead of
  ADB3318E:
  
  ADB3318W >program name<: could not convert characters from
  CCSID(>source CCSID<) to CCSID(37).
  
  Explanation: The program could not convert the characters to
  CCSID(37).
  System action: Processing continues.
  User response: Use valid CCSID.
