Hi Abe,
According to the IBM Db2 document, only PACKAGE OWNER RTM05PKO of Optimization Routines has the default is user-id.
https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/db2-for-zos/12?topic=dsntipra-db2-optimization-routines-panel-dsntiprm
|
Acceptable values:
|
blank, or a valid authorization ID
|
|
Default:
|
user-id
|
|
DSNZPxxx:
|
none
|
Other uses of PACKAGE OWNER (other PKOs) generally use blank as the default, such as for the following:
https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/db2-for-zos/12?topic=dsntipra-db2-administration-routines-panel-dsntiprl
PACKAGE OWNER
Specify the ID that should own the package when it is bound (the value for the OWNER parameter of the BIND PACKAGE command). The default for most routines is blank, meaning that no OWNER parameter is included in the BIND PACKAGE command. This field does not display for routines that do not have package.

Acceptable values:
|
blank, or a valid authorization ID
|
|
Default:
|
blank
|
|
DSNZPxxx:
|
none
|
Similarly, these other panels also have blank as the default:
https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/db2-for-zos/12?topic=dsntipra-text-search-routines-panel-dsntiprj
https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/db2-for-zos/12?topic=dsntipra-database-metadata-routines-panel-dsntiprk
https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/db2-for-zos/12?topic=dsntipra-xml-processing-routines-panel-dsntipri
https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/db2-for-zos/12?topic=dsntipra-utility-invocation-routines-panel-dsntiprc
and so on.
The CLIST matches with the current IBM Doc.
If you think the default of RTM05PKO should be blank, you can open a Case or contract Db2 Client Success Team. Then, it will be assigned to a more appropriate person.

Hi, thanks for your explanation.
In my DSNTID member I count 95 parameters ending in PKO, they are all just like RTM05PKO intended to encode a package owner.
Yet RTM05PKO is the only one in this set that gets set to my userid every time I pass through the panels. So I have to manually edit it afterwards every time, which is pretty annoying.
I think this is a bug in the clist. Where / how do I report this to the DB2 support team?

Hi Abe,
Happy New Year to you!
Here is what I found about the parameter RTM05PKO.
PACKAGE OWNER
Specify the ID that should own the package when it is bound (the value for the OWNER parameter of the BIND PACKAGE command). The default for most routines is blank, meaning that no OWNER parameter is included in the BIND PACKAGE command. This field does not display for routines that do not have package.
The setting user-id is the TSO user ID used to run the installation CLIST.
| Acceptable values: |
blank, or a valid authorization ID |
| Default: |
user-id |
| DSNZPxxx: |
none |
Here is the document link incase you need it.
For optimization routine, if the package owner is undefined, assign the current user ID.
That is why when you run Db2 V12 install panels, it sets to your user-id.

Happy new year to all of you!
I notice that every time I pass through the DB2 V12 install panels the DSNTID parameter RTM05PKO gets set to my userid.
Does anybody happen to know what the purpose is for this behavior? It seems odd, but no other parm exhibits comparable behavior. Was this created with a purpose in mind? Or is it a quirk/bug after all?
Thanks in advance
