Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  * USERS AFFECTED:                                              *
  * IBM Spectrum Control 5.2.x users who frequently open         *
  * hypervisors panel.                                           *
  ****************************************************************
  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:                                         *
  * Conditional SQL statements were used to identify the         *
  * selected hypervisors to list on the panel, which returned    *
  * inconsistent results from DB2.  The fix was to delete the    *
  * whole condition for the case when the entire list of         *
  * hypervisors is needed.                                       *
