4 Common Definitions
This section discusses SPI standard definitions, EMS standard definitions, and TMF
definitions used in the token-oriented programmatic interface to TMF.
The information in this section is general information that applies to all uses of the
definitions in the interface to TMF. Information about a definition that is specific to a
particular command, response, event message, or error list appears in the description
of that command, response, event message, or error list.
Definitions in this section appear in Data Definition Language (DDL) format.
Definitions of structures use DDL definition statements. For an explanation of DDL,
see the Data Definition Language (DDL) Reference Manual.
This section contains the following topics:
SPI Standard Definitions
All items in the definition files are given symbolic names. Definitions whose names
begin with ZSPI- are SPI standard definitions. These definitions are available to all
subsystems that support SPI procedures; they are provided in the SPI DDL file,
ZSPIDEF.ZSPIDDL, and in the corresponding files for other languages.
Table 4-1 through Table 4-6 list the SPI standard definitions used in the management
programming interface to TMF. The definitions are for:
Header tokens
Other simple tokens
Special tokens
Token types
Structures
Value names
The tables do not list SPI error numbers or definitions used only in error lists
associated with those error numbers, nor do they list all SPI token values an
application can use.
For descriptions of SPI standard definitions, see the SPI Programming Manual.
Information about the definitions that is specific to TMF follows Table 4-6.
