Local fix

• none known
  

Problem summary

• When a new file is queued up via DMH0700 without a wildcard
  character, the relatedId is for the PDS container and not the
  file - so an invalid scan queue row is generated leading to the
  null pointer exception.
  

Problem conclusion

• DMH0700 code was changed to correctly handle the situation
  where a new file is queued up via DMH0700 without a wildcard
  character.
