PM87823: UNLOAD FROM AN IMAGE COPY WITH A DDL FILE INCLUDING A COLUMN WITH DEFAULT SESSION_USER CLAUSE CAN LEAD TO VARIOUS ERRORS

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• An attempt to unload from an image copy (COPYDDN option) with a
  DDL file (DDLDDN option) including a column defined with the
  WITH DEFAULT SESSION_USER clause can lead to various errors
  among which the following ones:
  - completion code 8 and msg INZU020E ERROR WHILE RETRIEVING
    TABLESPACE INFO FROM THE CATALOG
  - the unload completes normally (completion code less than 8)
    but incorrect data is unloaded: the date from the columns
    defined after column defined with the WITH DEFAULT
    clause are not unloaded. The related generated  LOAD statement
    (if requested via the LOADDDN option) is consistent with the
    output data: i.e. the fields definitions of missing columns
    are also missing
  
  For example :
  If the DDL file specifies:
  CREATE TABLE me.mytable
  (COL01
  ...
  COL09                CHAR(8) FOR SBCS DATA NOT NULL
     WITH DEFAULT SESSION_USER,
   COL10                TIMESTAMP NOT NULL WITH DEFAULT)
  ...
  The data from the column COL10 is not unloaded and the LOAD
  statement is as follows:
  LOAD
  ....
  INTO TABLE me.mytable
  (
  COL08
       POSITION (    41  )         CHAR (     6 )
   ,
  COL09
       POSITION (    47  )         CHAR (     8 )
  
  )
  .

Local fix

• Replace the SESSION_USER from the DDL file by USER
