Error description
This APAR will address two problems: 1) The following control card receives a syntax error: CIC DBD=DBD120,DDN=DBD120,ICOUT=IC11, COMP=N because of the blank preceeding COMP=N 2) Low leve qualifiers for Dataset Names are forced to 8 characters. This restriction should be removed.

Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: IMS DATABASE CONTROL SUITE V3R1 AND V3R2 * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: 1. CONTROL SUITE PANEL DOES NOT ALLOW * * A LOADLIB LLQ LESS THAN 8 CHARACTERS. * * 2. MESSAGE 'FABJ0001E CONTROL STATEMENT * * FORMAT ERROR' RECEIVED RUNNING CONTROL * * SUITE GENERATED JCL FOR HPIC CIC JOB. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** DATABASE CONTROL SUITE REL 3.1 AND 3.2 DISPLAY PANEL, IDL$SYS, IS ONE OF THE PANELS USED TO DEFINE THE CONTROL SUITE ENVIRONMENT. THE FIELD SPECIFYING THE CS LOADLIB LOW LEVEL QUALIFIER ONLY ACCEPTED 8 CHARACTER NAMES, EVEN THOUGH AN LLQ WITH FEWER CHARACTERS SHOULD BE VALID. DATABASE CONTROL SUITE REL 3.2 CONTROL SUITE JOB SKELETON, IDLICEC3, GENERATED A CIC CONTROL STATEMENT WITH AN INVALID BLANK SPACE. THIS CAUSED THE HPIC JOB TO END WITH ERROR 'FABJ0001E CONTROL STATEMENT FORMAT ERROR'.
Problem conclusion
PANEL IDL$SYS WAS CHANGED TO ACCEPT LESS THAN 8 CHARACTERS FOR THE LOADLIB LLQ NAME. FOR RELEASE 3.2, 'LOADLBR' WAS SUBSTITUTED FOR 'LOADLIB' IN IDLRDIAG TO AVOID ANY CONFUSION WITH THE 'LOADLIB' FIELD IN THE CSID TABLE. BLANKS WERE REMOVED FROM THE IDLICEC3 CIC CONTROL STATEMENTS.
