Issue/Introduction

Insert of a  CERTAUTH certificate shows the following error message:

Environment

Resolution

The key of an certdata record in the ACF2 database is of the following format: 

userid.suffix

where userid is the logonid of a user or one of two special userids... CERTAUTH or SITECERT suffix is up to 8 characters (not including the period).

For example:

SITECERT.COMMON

ACF0A207 SYSID OR RECID LENGTH ERROR occurs when the length of suffix is greater than 8 characters or the total record length is more than 17 characters.

The record id can only be 1-17 characters long including periods.
