Dean,

Sorry, I had been on vacation a good part of last week. With CA 1, the CTSSYNC 
utility has a "SYNCTEST" that basically does the same thing. It validates all 
three databases (the OAM/TCDB, CA 1's TMC, and the Library Managers database) 
against each other. If any 1 is out-of-sync with the other 2 is simply reports 
it. No updating is performed. It is very useful when the problem is between the 
TCDB and the LM (which should never happen, but does) as well as between CA 1 
and either of the IBM data bases.
