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.
ZSPI-TKN-CONTEXT
is the standard SPI context token described in the Distributed Systems Management
(DSM) Programming Manual.
Operational Notes
When the ZDETAIL field is specified as TRUE (-1) in the ZDNS-MAP-INFO-
DNSOBJ-P structured token, the INFO COMPOSITE command normally returns
ZDNS-MAP-INFO-COMP-BR, ZDNS-MAP-INFO-COMP-DR and one ZDNS-
INFO-SSOBJ-BR for each component. In the case where an imported group has a
member that has not been exported to the local system, the name manager only
has enough information to respond with ZDNS-MAP-INFO-COMP-BR.
Consequently, the name manager will only return the token for which it has the
necessary information. Where tokens normally expected in the response are not
returned, the name manager will include a warning error list as follows:
ZSPI-TKN-ERRLIST
ZSPI-TKN-ERR (Error number 30, name not found)
ZSPI-TKN-TYPE (Type 6, qualified DNS name)
ZSPI-TKN-OBJNAME (Name of group member)
ZSPI-TKN-ENDLIST
For more information on the ZDETAIL field, see “Overview of the INFO
Commands” earlier in this section.
If ZDNS-MAP-INFO-DNSOBJ-P is supplied, ZDNS-MAP-INFO-COMP-BR is
returned for each composite specified. If the ZDETAIL field of ZDNS-MAP-INFO-
DNSOBJ-P is supplied with a value of TRUE, a single ZDNS-MAP-INFO-COMP-
DR token is also returned together with one ZDNS-MAP-INFO-SSTYPE-BR token
for each component of the composite object.
An additional logical database READ is required for detailed information in the
following cases:
1. ZNAME = “*” but ZDEFNODE <> “*”.
2. ZTYPE is non-null.
3. ZGROUP is non-null.
