Resolution

The following warning can occur when you link a CA Easytrieve Report Generator program in a 64-bit Linux for zSeries or Linux PC environment: 
      warning: xxxx architecture of input file `program.o' is incompatible with yyyy output 

If you receive this warning, you can add a switch to your EZTOPTS environment variable that forces the assembler to create a 32-bit .o file. 

For a Linux PC environment, add the following switch: 
-W a,--32
 
For a Linux for zSeries environment, add the following switch:
  -W a,-m31
