Object States
Action Modifiers
ZDSN^AMOD^RESET in the _INPUT.MOD.Z^AMOD field indicates that statistics
should be reset after being reported.
The Action Modifier (_INPUT.MOD.Z^AMOD)
The command thread must support the resetting of statistics as indicated by the
following action modifier:
Object States
Subsystem objects can have a number of possible states that are significant within the
context of the subsystem. To present uniform status displays of subsystems and their
objects, subsystem states are classified into a small set of DSNM states. This set of
states can be smaller than the set of subsystem states for an object. Subsystem states are
reported as text in the DSNM command response. The command thread must be able to
map the states of the subsystem objects to the following DSNM object states:
ZDSN^AMOD^RESET Reset subsystem statistics after reporting (valid for
STATISTICS command only).
ZDSN^STATE^UP |
ZDSN^STATE^GREEN
Object is in use or available for immediate use.
ZDSN^STATE^DOWN |
ZDSN^STATE^RED
The object is unavailable or needs an operator to take
action to make it ready.
ZDSN^STATE^PENDING |
ZDSN^STATE^YELLOW
The object is neither UP nor DOWN, but is in some
intermediate state (such as STARTING). Most
subsystems have one or more states to describe an
object that is neither ready nor totally deactivated.
PENDING corresponds to these subsystem states; an
object in this state may require special action to occur
or condition to be met.
