RE: V5R1 Trigger data buffer shifted

[Scott Mildenberger <Smildenber@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Just going from memory but I think they added something for BLOB support.
Don't know if it was added in V5R1 or if just the room for it was reserved.
I think I found something about it in the V5R1 What's new this release
document.
