ZDNS-MAP-ALTER-COMP
is a structured token that describes the composite object to be altered. This token
is required. It has the token number ZDNS-TNM-ALTER-COMP and the
definition ZDNS-DDL-ALTER-COMP. It contains the following fields:
ZNAME
contains the name of the composite object to be altered. Possible errors
referring to this field are:
ZDNS-ERR-INV-NAME
ZDNS-ERR-NOTFOUND
ZDNS-ERR-REQD-FIELD
ZDEFNODE
If the composite to be altered is defined on a system other than the local
system, the system name must be specified in this field. If this field is left null,
the name manager assumes that the name is defined on its own system.
If the composite being altered is defined on a remote system, it must have
been previously copied using ZDNS-CMD-COPY. Possible errors referring to
this field are:
ZDNS-ERR-INV-NAME
ZDNS-ERR-REMOTENAME
If the domain of the composite is to be changed, the name of the composite’s
new domain should be placed in the ZDOMAIN field. If all replicated copies
of the composite’s definition are to be deleted, this field should be set to all
spaces. If the field is left null, the domain of the composite is not changed.
The domain of a composite defined on a remote system may not be altered.
Possible errors referring to this field are:
ZDNS-ERR-INV-NAME
ZDNS-ERR-NOTFOUND
ZDNS-ERR-REMOTENAME
