What do you mean when you say "just to substantiate a problem"? I went back to your first post and saw this: (My objective is to give a customer a LIST command the output of which can simply be filtered into an APPLY SELECT() command in order to create a test zone at the same maintenance state as the zone in which a problem occurred.) Why can't you just (provide jobs to) clone the zone and target libraries. What am I missing?
