DCAL Workstation Computer Name

When configuring a DCAL workstation for a property, EMC does not enforce the maximum character limit restrictions for workstation computer names. The CAL client automatically truncates computer names greater than 15 characters, but ServiceHost may overwrite the truncated name during startup. When this occurs, DCAL clients may not be able to communicate with the DCAL workstation.

Workaround:

Use EMC to change the DCAL workstation computer name to 15 characters or less.
