Error description
After PM56571/UK75880 installation, selector always tries to read SLDS datasets beginning from the SLDS in which the "LAST" database update log resides. When a part of PRILOG got compressed by DBRC because of 24 hours being passed, DPROP selector failed with; EKYB229W THE UNLOGGED TIME PERIOD DETAILED ABOVE IS FOLLOWED BY A PERIOD FOR WHICH ARCHIVED LOGS EXIST.

Local fix
circumventing by removing PM56571/UK75880
Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: Users of IMS DataPropagator Version 3 * * Release 1 asynchronous Selector component. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: The Selector may issue warning message * * MSGEKYB229W with this message being * * preceded by MSGEKYB222I. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: INSTALL CORRECTIVE SERVICE FOR APAR/PTF * **************************************************************** The IMS DataPropagator asynchronous Selector may issue warning message EKYB229W during processing. This message is preceded by message EKYB222I. In the particular case of the reported problem the situation encountered was a result of DBRC PRILOG compression eliminating reference to an IMS log required by the Selector. In the problem situation subsequent runs of the Selector will "stall" indicating the same time period being identified via message EKYB222I unless changes are made to indicate to the Selector to bypass this period.
Problem conclusion
The problem was a result of the Selector not adjusting it's leading edge processing time when no log records of interest to the Selector were encountered during a particular run. In the reported problem situation runs of the Selector were made over several days without any records of interest by the Selector being encountered. Eventually the Selector then encountered a situation where PRILOG compression had removed reference to an IMS log the Selector expected to be available. Changes have been made to the Selector to move the leading edge processing time forward to an appropriate time even though no records of specific interest to that Selector have been encountered, thus avoiding problems of the type in the reported problem case. However, this does not mean that in all situations PRILOG compression will now not result in the Selector not finding an IMS log that it requires for processing. The Selector must still run on a frequent enough schedule to not be impacted by DBRC log references being unavailable.
