Subject: Change Write access in Device file

Category: 
  - Informational

Description:
============

 Patch XU*8*546 made changes to the DEVICE(#3.5) file access codes.  
 It changed the WRITE ACCESS on several fields to "@".  Several sites
 complained because not all users who support the DEVICE file has "@"
 access.  They specifically mention the ability to change the TYPE(#2) field.
 This patch gives instructions for changing the WRITE ACCESS of the
 TYPE field to "#".
 
 Remedy Ticket: 807348
