Error description
ADBTEP2 ends with RC=0 when a user-specified restarting point is not in a WSL. As a result, the deletion of the restart point information from the DB2 Admin check- point table makes the WSL unable to restart from the previous point of failure. With this APAR, when a user-specified restart label is not found in a WSL, the job will end with RC=8, and a new error message, ADB5278E / msgadb5278e, will be displayed: ADB5278E User restart label label_name was not found. Review WSL and ensure to have the specified restart label.
