_GET^PARAM
_GET^PARAM
_GET^PARAM retrieves one instance of a DSNM configuration parameter that is not 
part of the standard set stored in the _DSNMCONF^PARAMS structure. 
error returned value
INT
is a ZDSN^ERR or Guardian error. See Appendix B, “DSNM Error Codes,” for 
ZDSN^ERR error code definitions. Refer to the Guardian Procedure Errors and 
Messages Manual for Guardian error descriptions. 
paramscope input
INT
indicates whether the parameter is local or global:
error := _GET^PARAM ( paramscope
 , paramtype
 ,[ subsys ]
 ,[ class ]
 ,[ component ]
 , paramname
 , paramvalue:maxlen
 ,[ len ] 
 ,[ error-filename ] );
_LOCAL^PARAM Local parameters consist of a single value (for 
example, SWAPVOL) obtained from one source: a 
DSNMCONF file or the startup message.  
_GLOBAL^PARAM Global parameters consist of multiple values (for 
example, command server SYSTEM parameters) 
from all sources in which instances of the parameter 
are found.
