Operational Notes
If the requester does not have DNS write authority, the command is rejected with
ZDNS-ERR-SECURITY.
If ZEXT is specified as -1 (or defaults to that value), the subsystem object name is
added as an untyped alias for the object. However, if the name in ZNAME is not a
valid alias name (for instance, $LINE), the command is rejected with error 21
(invalid name format). (Even though $LINE may be a legal subsystem object for
the subsystem-object type, it is not a valid alias name.)
The DNSCOM command “ADD SSOBJECT TERM22, MANAGER \CORP.$PM,
TYPE TERM IN PATHWAY” supplies ZDNS-MAP-ADD-SSOBJ as follows:
ZNAME = "TERM22 "
ZSSMGR = "\CORP $PM "
ZSSTYPE = "TERM "
ZSS = "PATHWAY "
ZDOMAIN =
null
ZEXT =
null
