Hi there,

When I map/load a new application into LMi, I am used to use the combination of File Source (*OBJ and *SEARCH) and timestamp to find object pairing to the source. Until I got an experience, when I mapped/loaded an application where they used the same object name for different object type, for example OBJA with *PGM and *FILE, then I found many CMS2415 error (saying that the source member is used by an object) in my spoolfiles. And many objects are mapped wrongly. Like *PGM is mapped to source of PF and *FILE is mapped to source of RPGLE.

If I analyze, I find that:
1. LMi won't consider source member type when it looks for the source. As long the object name = source member name, then LMi will pair them.
2. When LMi searchs the source for the second object name and it find the source is already paired by the first object name, then it will stop searching. The second source won't be paired.

Because of this I have to fixed hundreds of unique objects name manually, times with object type like *PGM, *MODULE, *FILE, etc.
So, we should be very careful when dealing with the same object name but different object type.

Is anyone has the same experience with me, and want to share how to handle this condition?

Thanks in advance.
