  This APAR provides message updates and fixes related to
  Db2 v12 continuous delivery support in Admin tool and
  improvements to ADBMSGS message module.
  Message updates are as follows:
  1. Confirmation panel on first login:
  The Db2 Administration Tool tolerates function level
  >function-level<.
  However, enhancements in this function level are not supported.
  If you do not use any of these enhancements, Db2 Admin
  operates normally.
  Select a choice
    1. Exit
    2. Continue - I understand and accept the risk for FL
       enhancements
    3. Continue as above and do not prompt again for this
       function level.
  2. ADB1970W Db2 function level >function-level< is tolerated
  but not supported by this function. New attributes or objects
  for this Db2 function level might not be handled or displayed
  correctly. The maximum supported function level is
  >supported-function-level<.
  3. ADB1971S To continue using this unsupported function level,
  you must accept the risk. Specify the "Max Db2 function
  level accepted" on the Admin Defaults panel or batch parameter
  ACCEPT_FL=-xxx- in the options for this function.
  4. ADB1972W Db2 function level >function-level< is not
  tolerated by this function. Unpredictable errors may occur and
  new attributes or objects for this Db2 function level might not
  be handled or displayed correctly. The maximum tolerated
  function level is >tolerated-function-level<.
  This APAR also provides enhancement to ADBMSGS messaging
  module, to include records from object comparison REPORT DD
  (Analysis and Object counts).
  Other fixes included in this APAR are as follows:
  1. While performing ALT operation and analysis in batch,
  all the field values from panel ADB2PCO 'Options for Change
  functions' will be visible in the generated job.
  2. While performing EXPORT changes operation, unexpected
  error message ADB1971S will not be displayed.
  3. While performing ANALYZE change operation, extract DB2
  catalog objects step will include DB2AFL parameter (if
  'DB2 function level' is specified on panel ADB2PCO 'Options
  for Change Functions').
  4. Admin Tool now tolerates FL 504. If the current function
  level is 504, message ADB1972W ("unpredictable errors may
  occur") will no longer be displayed.
  

Problem conclusion

• Enhancements and fixes are delivered.
