Personnel is a required subfield and may be repeated. Personnel Role is not repeatable within the data center group. Personnel Role is required. New names should be submitted with the DIF for review. Short name and long name should be provided.
Short name is usually a mnemonic or abbreviated version of the long name.
When submitting a new short name, always check the Data Center Valids List to ensure mutual exclusivity among data center short names. No two data centers may have the same short name. This is helpful for users conducting broad searches because the users may query on the substring INPE and receive all DIFs from INPE, regardless of division. Long name is the full name of the data center. This field may be repeated as many times as necessary within the data center group.
