Error description
If a customer didn't implement the cdp directly after a previous migration or re-customisation action, and starts cdp in one of the 2 modes, problems to complete this new action occur leading to unpredictable results. In the worst case, the actions cannot be completed at all. The tool needs to be improved to ensure, that even without a previous implement, customer can't get stuck with the follow-on actions. When interrupting a preparation, the system needs to remain in a state where further processing is possible. Customers need to get the possibility to easily check, whether the previous actions have been completed successfully. Completion of previous migration or re-customisation steps must be ensured without the necessity to back-out already applied, but not yet post-installed maintenance, and the documentation must be improved to describe customisation mode and migration mode and emphasize on the differences.

Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All users * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: DNICPD/DNICDPM IMPROVEMENTS NECESSARY * * TO DETERMINE THE STATE OF A PREVIOUS * * ACTION AND AVOID PROBLEMS DURING * * APPLYING MAINTENANCE * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** Formerly, there were poor indications to determine whether the last re-customization or migration has been implemented.
Problem conclusion
Now, the preparation status information is enhanced with the mode (customization or migration) for which deployment data has been generated and are not yet implemented. A script 'dnicdpst' is introduced to show whether a deployment is ongoing and in which mode it has been initiated.
