Error description

• Several inconsistencies around specifying a checkpoint interval
  value in initialization parameters or in CD Requester, like
  - When the user sets a new value, it is not always validated
  and converted correctly.
  - When resetting the value, the default is 64 K instead of 10 M
  as documented.
  - Initialization parameters do not display the value as M when
  possible.
  - Edit control in CD Requester is too small and only allows the

  Problem Description:
  Several inconsistencies around specifying a checkpoint interval
  value in initialization parameters or in CD Requester. For
  example, initialization parameters do not display the value as
  M when possible. When the user sets a new value, it is not
  always validated and converted correctly. When resetting the
  value, a default of 64 K is applied instead of 10 M as
  documented. Edit control in CD Requester is too small and only
  allows the user to enter 3-digits.
  
  Platforms Affected:
  Windows
  

Problem conclusion

• Resolution Summary:
  Updated validation routines to use a consistent upper limit of
  2047 megabytes (M) or 2097151 kilobytes (K) for the checkpoint
  interval. Fixed the default to be 10 M. Fixed KM-to-bytes
  conversion routines to check for overflow and fail. Updated the
  Edit Control in the COPY statement UI in CD Requester allowing
  the user to enter up to 7 digits.
