STATUS Command (ZCOM-CMD-STATUS)
Response Token Usage Considerations

Basic SPI signifies that the presence of this token in the command is dictated by
the basic SPI command language standards that govern multiple objects and
responses.

Conditional signifies that this information is present only if the object name was
omitted or set to wild card.

Unconditional signifies that the token always appears in the response.

Error only signifies that this token is present only when an error or warning is
reported in the response record.
For a detailed description of these response tokens, see Common Definitions for
ZCOM- Commands on page 17-5.
STATUS Command Features
To receive specific information about the new features, you can use the newer object-
oriented interface of the distributor (command ZCOM-CMD-STATUS). If a STATUS
command is sent without an object type, the distributor returns all available information
(equivalent to the existing STATUS command, which is described later in this section).
If the object type is specified as ZCOM-OBJ-DIST, and the object name is either
omitted or set to the wild-card character (*), an asterisk, information about all objects
