Error description

• After upgrade to maintenance level 7.5.11.1 (.2) the DB2 master
  log DB2MSTR can show DSNX881I messages with unknown msgcode
  4000:
  "New DB2 FODC directory
  "/head/home/db2inst1/sqllib/db2dump/NODE0001/FODC_AppErr_2023-08
  -20-0 2.38.25.462738_93944_63076_001" found; contact IBM Support

  https://www.ibm.com/mysupport/s/createrecord/NewCase?language=en
  _US
  
  With Accelerator maintenance level 7.5.11.1(.2) housekeeping
  services are scanning the diagnostic directories to detect
  remainders of irregular or unusual process terminations in the
  accelerator's database DB2wh.
  For each of the FODC (First Occurrence Data Capture) dump
  directories found a DSNX881I 4000W message is written to
  DB2MSTR.
  Please ignore the request to open a support case for each of
  those messages.
  It is sufficient to contact IBM support to achieve a
  clarification concerning the nature of the FODC dumps.
  The housekeeping services will purge the dumps seven days after
  their creation.
  
  The text of the DSNX881I 4000W message will be corrected with
  maintenance level 7.5.12; the recommendation to open a support
  case will be removed.

  following new internal configurations parameters can be used to
  customize the occurance of this message:
  
  SYSTEM_MAINTENANCE_BACKEND_FODC_DIRECTORY_PREFIXES_NO_CLIENT_MES
  SAGE: Allows the disabling DSNX881I 4000 events for specified
  FODC prefixes (like FODC_WLM_Queue etc.)
  
  SYSTEM_MAINTENANCE_BACKEND_FODC_DIRECTORY_PREFIXES_INFORMATIONAL
  _CLIENT_MESSAGE: Allows the lowering of the severity (waring to
  informational) of the DSNX881I 4000 events for specified FODC
  prefixes (like FODC_WLM_Queue etc.)
  
  The configuration parameters can only be changed by IBM Support
  in a remote maintenance session.
