  * RECOMMENDATION: Apply the maintenance for this APAR.         *
  ****************************************************************
  A DBD optional keyword for NOTIFY or CHANGE.BKOUT command is
  used to identify databases having changes associated with an
  unit of recovery (UOR) that require backout.
  The number of the database names which can be specified by one
  DBD keyword is a maximum of eight.
  However, when the UOR has more than eight database names that
  require backout, DFR generates the DBRC command with one DBD
  keyword that is listed by all database names that require
  backout. If the generated DBRC commands are run, the job will
  end with a return code of 12 and a 'MSGDSP0204I INVALID VALUE
  FOR PARAMETER DBD' message.
  

Problem conclusion

• The following modules have been modified.
  (x = A, B and C)
  *
  DFRNBKOx - When an UOR had more than eight database names that
             require backout, this module was changed so that the
             DBRC command may be divided and outputted for each
             DBD keyword that is listed by up to eight database
             names.
