  ****************************************************************
  This APAR fixes DBD/PSB/ACB Reversal to decode the position of
  parentheses correctly even if RMNAME for DEDB is less than 8
  bytes character.
  
  The cause of the problem is DBD/PSB/ACB Reversal assumes RMNAME
  for DEDB is 8 bytes character.
  So the utility decodes the position of the parenthesis
  incorrectly if the RMNAME is less than 8 bytes character.
  
  DBD/PSB/ACB Reversal is fixed to treat RMNAME as 1-8 bytes
  character.
