Error description
The DB2 Administration Tool for z/OS program APPLY jobs fail in step CONVnnnn with a: IBM0421S ONCODE=520 The SUBSCRIPTRANGE condition was raised. From entry point POPULATE_CONV_CONTROLS at statement 7117 when High Performance Unload ( HPU ) is used as the "Unload Method" on the DB2 Object Comparison Tool for z/OS' panel GOC5 "Generate Compare Jobs". The reported problem will happen when the following two conditions are both true: 1. There is a column being deleted from the original table(s) during APPLY. This applies to both OC path and ALT path. 2. HPU is used as the UNLOAD method.
Local fix
Use the "U - Unload" or "P - Parallel unload" option for the "Unload method" field on panel GOC5 "Generate Compare Jobs". In the scenario in which comparing target with source, no columns in target tables are being deleted during APPLY, then use HPU so not to see the reported error.
