    Description:
    When we do Step 9, Option 1, in the "Parallel Indexing" document to create the Logical Synonyms, we get the following error for the z980, z970, and z101:

    CREATE SYNONYM ...
    ERROR at line 1:
    ORA-00955: name is already used by an existing object

    Resolution:
    This error occurs when the tables (in this case, the z980, z970, and z101) were not dropped prior to doing the util a/17/5.

    You need to drop the tables (in the actual library) and then re-run util a/17/5 (in the actual library).
