PM39331: CONCATONATED GRAPHIC DATA WITH RESULTING GREATER THAN 127 CHARACTERS SHOULD BE PROCESSED AS VARGRAPHIC

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• The concatenation of graphic data with a resulting length
  greater than 127 characters is unduly handled as a graphic data
  instead of a vargraphic.
  
  As a precaution:
  Make sure your programs using the output of an unload involving
  a concatenation of graphic data with a resulting length greater
  than 127 characters did not rely on the unexpected graphic
  format. After applying the fix, the output format of such
  concatenation will have the correct vargraphic format.
