Error description

  • With File Maneger for z/OS V8R1 Japanese feature and
    LANGUAGE=KANJDBCS is in effect (instead of LANGUAGE=ENGLISH),
    the New data set and Old data set names are not shown in the
    Compare utility output.
    For example, the following is the correct LANGUAGE=ENGLISH
    output.
    -------------------------------------------------------------
    * * * * Formatted comparison with one-to-one synchronization
    * * New data set: VPK0007.TEST.VB106151.MODA
    * *               using template VPK0007.M.CPYLIB2(CCC)
    * * Old data set: VPK0007.TEST.VB106151.MODB
    * *               using copybook VPK0007.M.CPYLIB(CB015152)
    -------------------------------------------------------------
    But with LANGUAGE=KANJDBCS, the 2nd and 4th lines are missing.
    -------------------------------------------------------------
    * * * * Formatted comparison with one-to-one synchronization
    * *               using template VPK0007.M.CPYLIB2(CCC)
    * *               using copybook VPK0007.M.CPYLIB(CB015152)
