    ****************************************************************
    01.The length of the member field in the CA Endevor CARMA RAM
       was defined as 8 characters whereas the length of the field
       in the CA Endevor API is 10 characters.  This causes invalid
       characters to sometimes be in the extra 2 characters.
    

Problem conclusion

  • 01.The RDz Endevor RAM configurations file is being changed to
       define the member name field as 10 characters.
