HP 3PAR Web Service API 1.3.1 Developer's Guide
The code Member
Just as is the case with CLI text, the text in the desc member (see Table 5 (page 22)) is subject to
change and cannot be relied upon. To avoid that problem, the WSAPI provides a reliable code
for an error.
The error code member is a JSON numeric type. Only codes that are defined in Table 5 (page
22) and in Table 6 (page 25) will be returned.
For applications that change behavior based on errors, only the code member should be relied
on. For ease of reading documentation, a symbol is defined for each numeric code, but the symbol
is not part of the API. The numeric value is the contract between client and server. The codes are
described in Table 5 (page 22).
Generic codes for the WSAPI are described in Table 5 (page 22).
