Tokens in Response Buffer
ZDNS-TKN-OBJNAME
is an object-name token that contains the name of the subsystem-object type added
by the command. This token is present in every response record. ZDNS-TKN-
OBJNAME is described in Section 4 under the heading “Simple Tokens.”
ZSPI-TKN-RETCODE
is the standard SPI return token described in the Distributed Systems Management
(DSM) Programming Manual. This token is present in every response record. If its
value is zero (ZDNS-ERR-NOERR), this token indicates that the name is
successfully added. If ZSPI-TKN-RETCODE is not zero, the name is not added.
Where a non-zero return code is present, the response buffer may contain one or
more error lists. Even if the return code is zero, the response may still contain
error lists that describe warnings.
ZSPI-TKN-ERRLIST
is a standard SPI error list, as described in the Distributed Systems Management
(DSM) Programming Manual. The list ends with the token ZSPI-TKN-ENDLIST.
Operational Notes
If the requester does not have DNS definition authority, the command is rejected
with ZDNS-ERR-SECURITY.
The DNSCOM command “ADD SSTYPE TERM, SUBSYSTEM PATHWAY,
TYPENUM 5, FORMAT PATHWAYNAME, HASMANAGER ON” presents
ZDNS-MAP-ADD-SSTYPE as follows:
ZNAME = "TERM "
ZSS = "PATHWAY "
ZTYPENUM = 5
ZDOMAIN = null
ZEXT = null
ZFMT = ZDNS-VAL-PWAY (6)
ZDUPOK = null
ZHASMGR = -1
