Parameter
cpuid/trunc_size
Short text
The length to which host names are shortened
Parameter Description
One of four parameters (see also cpuid/trunc_left, cpuid/behind_last, and cpuid/before_first), which are used to control how long external host names are converted to short internal R/3 host names.
If necessary, the long host name is taken out of a longer network address name using separators. The parameter is then checked to determine whether the name is too long. If the name is too long, it is shortened at the left or right according to cpuid/trunc_left.

Are other parameters affected or dependent?
The five associated parameters are applied in the following sequence:
1. cpuid/
2. cpuid/before_first
3. cpuid/behind_last
4. cpuid/trunc_size
5. cpuid/trunc_left
Values allowed
‘0’, The standard permitted length. This is release dependent. In older Releases the standard length was 8. In Release 99, it is usually 13 and in later Releases, it is 32.
Otherwise, A number between 6 and 32.
