>Hello list, I've just ran a simple comparison between two target zones : REPORT SYSMODS INZONE(ZOSENT) COMPAREDTO(ZOSPROD). to my surprise, SMP/E found no SYSMODs to report. Then I tried REPORT SYSMODS INZONE(ZOSPROD) COMPAREDTO(ZOSENT). reverting the order of my target zones, and SMP/E found (as expected) the discrepancies between the zones. Shouldn't be both commands above identical ?I've never seen anything like this before. Any hints ? ============================================= This isn't like ISPF compare where it shows all differences regardless of the 2 targets of the compare. Read the description of the command carefully. The report shows SYSMODS where ARE IN the input zone (INZONE) but NOT IN the COMPAREDTO zone. So order does matter.
