Modifying the ACF
APPLICATION-SSID-
OWNER
application-ssid-owner
The parameter defines the owner of the event buffer and must be
an eight-character string or less to identify your company or
organization.
The owner name must start with an alpha character and contain
only alphanumeric characters and hyphens. Blanks are allowed
only at the end for padding. The alpha characters are case
sensitive (for example, “COMPANY” and “Company” are
recognized as different names). To avoid confusion, it is
recommended that you define your owner ID with all alpha
characters in uppercase, as is done for the Tandem owner ID
“TANDEM_ _” (where the underscores represent blanks).
APPLICATION-SSID-
NUMBER
application-ssid-number
This field defines the SSID subsystem number and is identified by
a 16-bit signed integer value that identifies the subsystem within
the set of subsystems provided by the subsystem owner.
APPLICATION-SSID-
VERSION
application-ssid-version
The parameter represents the software release version of the
subsystem and is a 16-bit unsigned integer value. In the format of
the field the left byte contains the letter part of the version as an
ASCII uppercase alpha character, and the right byte contains the
numeric part of the version as an unsigned integer value.
EVENT-TEXT-TYPE event-text-type
The parameter controls the length of the displayable text
describing the event. The values supported by EMS FastStart are
ZSPI-DDL-CHAR128 and ZSPI-DDL-CHAR254.
FIELD-X-NAME field-x-name
The parameter specifies the name of each field in the EGEN-
RECORD and has a maximum 20 character string. The name
must start with an alpha character and contain only alpha and
numeric characters and hyphens. Blanks are allowed only at the
end for padding. Replace the “X” for each different field with an
integer value (a field includes NAME, TYPE, and NUMBER
definitions). The value for “X” must be sequential and start with
1. (See Field Definitions below for more information.)
