Intrinsics for Node and Environment Status

NSINFO Intrinsic

26. list environments

length 16-bit integer. Contains the number of envnums

entered into the array supplied in item 27. If 0 is

returned then no environments matched generic

environment ID. This item must precede item 27.

27. list

environments Array of 100 16-bit integers. Will be ﬁlled with

envnums whose envID matches the generic environment

ID input as the envID parameter. Must be preceded by

item 26.

36. local node

ARPA domain

name length 16-bit integer. The length, in bytes, of the local node’s

ARPA domain name. This item is independent of the

environment speciﬁed by envID or envnum. It must

precede item 37. The NS transport must have been

started for this to succeed.

37. local node

ARPA domain

name 255-byte character array. The name of the local

node’s ARPA domain name. The NS transport must

have been started for this to succeed.

38. IP address 32-bit integer. The IP address (4 bytes) of the node in

the given environment. Currently, this option works

only for $BACK environments. The value zero will be

returned for all other environments.
