Environment

NetMaster 13.0

Resolution

NetMaster 13.0 PTF LU18730.

Additional Information

A temporary workaround is running batch NMVIP jobs to update MODSDIS and PANLDIS.

Note that with 13.0 release the percentage of APARs/PTFs requiring automatic VSAMUPDATE (or batch NMVIP) drops to almost zero.
