Predefined Token and Field
Values
The DNS subsystem defines the following two values for use in tokens and token
fields in several commands, event messages, or error lists.
ZDNS-VAL-SSID
is the subsystem ID for the DNS subsystem. The ZSPI-TKN-SSID token is always
assigned the value ZDNS-VAL-SSID. It has the following structure definition:
def ZDNS-VAL-SSID tacl ssid.
02 Z-FILLER type character(8)
value is ZDNS-VAL-TANDEM.
02 Z-OWNER redefines Z-FILLER
type ZSPI-DDL-CHAR8.
02 Z-NUMBER type ZSPI-DDL-INT
value is ZDNS-VAL-SSN.
02 Z-VERSION type ZSPI-DDL-UINT
value is ZDNS-VAL-VERSION.
end.
ZDNS-VAL-VERSION
is a version number identifying the version of the DNS DSM interface being used.
In commands sent by management applications, this should be the version of the
interface that the application is using. In responses, applications should not
depend on the value of this field, but should use the value of ZSPI-TKN-SERVER-
VERSION.
