PK50190: KD2DDICT INCORRECT MIN MAX VALUES

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Also in ++ CLIST    (KD2DDICT) I see the following
  NAME(KD2_OMPE_CCPC_TIMER) LEN(4) TYPE(NUM)
  DEF(0030) MIN(0001) MAX(0560) REQ(N)
  DESC('D2 common collector timeout interval')
  VARNAME(D2OSTIMR)
  HELP(Specifies the D5API timeout interval for XE Agent connect
  and
       collect calls.);
  I am not quite sure how to interpret this. But if DEF is the
  default value, that appears to coincide with the code
  IF (&D2OSTIMR = '')
     &D2OSTIMR = '0030'
  That sets the default to 0030.
  
  If MAX is the max value that is permitted and that is 0560
  1) if the format is mmss shouldn't max be 0600
  2) the panel does an edit
  VER (&D2OSTIMR,NB,RANGE,0010,0300)
   so both MIN and MAX values are out of range of the MIN and MAX
  in the dictionary
  

Local fix

• (min should be 30 seconds --> 0030 and the maximum should be
  9min --> 0900).
