ZDNS-MAP-ALTER-GROUP
is a structured token that describes the group to be altered. This token is required.
It has the token number ZDNS-TNM-ALTER-GROUP and the definition ZDNS-
DDL-ALTER-GROUP. It contains the following fields:
ZNAME
contains the name of the group to be altered. Possible errors referring to this
field are:
ZDNS-ERR-INV-NAME
ZDNS-ERR-REMOTENAME
ZDNS-ERR-NOTFOUND
ZDNS-ERR-REQD-FIELD
ZDNS-ERR-NESTED-GROUP
ZDEFNODE
If the group 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 group being altered is defined on a remote system, it must have been
previously copied using ZDNS-CMD-COPY. A possible error referring to this
field is:
ZDNS-ERR-INV-NAME
ZDOMAIN
contains the new domain name, if the domain of the group is to be changed. If
all replicated copies of the group’s definition are to be deleted, this field
should be set to all spaces. If the field is left null, the domain of the group is
not changed.
The domain of a group defined on a remote system may not be altered.
Groups containing other groups as members may not have their definitions
replicated. If the group named in ZNAME has other groups as members, this
field must be left null. Possible errors referring to this field are:
ZDNS-ERR-INV-NAME
ZDNS-ERR-NOTFOUND
ZDNS-ERR-REMOTENAME
