This is as expected.

I thought that there was a PTF that provided QCENTURY for V3R1, but I could 
be wrong.  V3R1 is generally Y2K ready, but not warranted by IBM as being such.

My suggestion on the V3R1 system is to go to V3R2.  Neither size nor 
performance are an extreme determent on 3.1 vs. 3.2.
