Provide an Option to break out of 'bsub' if a job will not submit due to a user hitting their pending job limit

Remove messages such as Grant(source): Grantor=CONTROLM Grantee:DB2DEVGP (Not propagated) from the Compare Report. Compare Report should only list what is going be changed.

The Grant message clutters the report and should only reflect what is changing and not the obvious: Compare table source(CHIC.CAN_MRN_CMP_INF_CMC) and target(LOAD.CAN_MRN_CMP_INF_CMC) No changes to Table Grant(source): Grantor=CONTROLM Grantee:DB2...
