How to interpret the various "Import Status" During Model Copy.

Products

• CA 2E

Issue/Introduction

After executing the YCPYMDLOBJ command with the copy option set to *COPY, the copied objects can be verified in the target model using the YDSPMDLOD command. During verification, the Import Status for one or more objects may be displayed as "E". While the product help documentation describes the Import Status values "N", "O", and "L", it does not provide information about the "E" status. This document explains the meaning of the various Import Status values and how they should be interpreted during a model copy operation.

Environment

Release: CA 2E 8.7.3.

Resolution

These are the various status codes related to YCPYMDLOBJ:

'N'; /* This is set if the object being copied is completely new in the Target model */
'E'; /* This is set of the copy of the specific object is ending in Error */
'O'; /* This is set if an Exact match is found in the Target model, i.e., the exact model object exists in the target model */
'L'; /* This is set if the object is locked in the target model and the OVRTGTLCK is not set to *YES */
'M'; /* This is only when we attempt to copy files - If the relation sequence between source and target model has changed OR if new relations are added */
