PQ53043: ISPF CUSTOMIZATION DIALOGS ONLY ALLOW 41 CHARACTERS FOR 'CORBA' AND 'JNDI' NAME SPACE ROOT FIELDS ON PANEL BBOWCFG1

APAR status
Closed as fixed if next.

Error description
When using the ISPF Customization Dialogs, on Panel BBOWCFG1,
(page 1 of 4 of the 'WebSphere Customization) panels, the fields
for the 'Websphere Namespace Information' CORBA and JNDI name
space root, are limited to 41 characters.  If the customer has
a longer name structure they cannot enter it via the ISPF
Customization Dialogs.
Local fix
Users can manually edit the BBOWLDIF job that is in the '*.DATA'
PDS that is created from the dialogs.  They will also have to
edit the 'bboslapd.conf' file, and the 'current.env' files that
have these fields in them.
