I made an unpleasant discovery when I recataloged (normally) one of my
accounts (UV10.0, HP-UX).
Some of the catalog names became too long (e.g.
*SJ.RR.MAST.DEVELOP*GET.COUNTRY.RESPONSE.SE) and were truncated by the catalog
process (*SJ.RR.MAST.DEVELOP*GET.COUNTRY.RESPONSE.). Unfortunately I had
several programs with similar names (GET.COUNTRY.RESPONSE.ALL, .METRO, .NW,
.RV, & .SE). All of these resulted in the same truncated name so only 1 catdir
entry was created, which was for the last one of the 5 cataloged. The catdir
path is ...catdir/*SJ.RR.MAST.DE/VELOP*GET.COUN with a single file of
*GET.COUN  .
Trying to run the programs results in a warning "File name
*SJ.RR.MAST.DEVELOP*GET.COUTRY.RESPONSE.SE" too long. Truncated to
"*SJ.RR.MAST.DEVELOP*GET.COUNTRY.RESPONSE."

Is this a known limitation ? Why does the directory nesting stop at the 2nd
level ? The VOC entries show the full names.  catdir is type 1 out of the
box.
