Reporting List of Disabled Event Definitions

[pasetti]

Clause 6.5.5.4 (Report the list of disabled event definitions) includes the following sub-clause:

d: For each valid request to report the list of disabled event definitions, the event reporting subservice shall generate a single disabled event definitions list report that includes all related disabled event definition notifications.

In all cases known to me, each application sets a maximum size for a telemetry report. Suppose that the number of disabled events in an application is such that they do not fit within one single (5,8) report. What happens in that case? How can be comply with the requirement of clause 6.5.5.4d?

Note that a similar problem exists for several other commands which trigger the generation of a multi-instruction report.

Clause 5.4.11.3.2a implies that requests which imply the generation of a response which exceeds the maximum size of a packet should be rejected. But is this really the intention in the case of the telecommand in question?
