APAR status
Closed as program error.
Error description
The $NTTrack field only stores the last 4 alphanumerals of the deviceID. It would be beneficial if the field would store the full deviceID for those who want it. Notes Traveler Server will be changed to allow a user to choose whether they would like to see the full ID or just the last 4 alphanumerals.
Local fix
N/A
Problem summary
nttrack field purposely uses last 4 digits of device ID as the field has a length limit. This APAR allows a customer to choose to store the full device ID. The behavior is managed with the notes.ini parameter: NTS_CALENDAR_TRACK_FULL_DEVICEID=true|false It is false by default, set to true to enable.
Problem conclusion
The Notes Traveler server has been updated to allow the full device ID to be stored if desired. The NTTrack field does have a character limit so this may increase chances that the field becomes truncated.
Temporary fix
This fix is included 9.0.0.1 IF8, 9.0.1 IF7 and will be included in any future releases. For the latest available Notes Traveler maintenance releases see this article: http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg24019529
