COMMANDS AND RESPONSES
PROBE Command
ZCOM-TKN-CMD-TIMEOUT and ZCOM-MAP-REQID are standard data-
communications tokens that are described in the
Communications
Management Programming Manual
. Duplicate occurrences of these
tokens are not allowed.
(ZSPI-TKN-) MAXRESP, CONTEXT, RESPONSE-TYPE, ALLOW-TYPE, and
COMMENT are standard SPI tokens described in the
Distributed
Systems Management (DSM) Programming Manual
. With the exception
of ZSPI-TKN-COMMENT, duplicate occurrences of these tokens are
not allowed.
Tokens in Response Buffer
ZSPI-TKN-DATALIST is a standard SPI data list, as described in
the
Distributed Systems Management (DSM) Programming Manual
. The
list ends with the token ZSPI-TKN-ENDLIST.
ZEXP-MAP-PROBE-NCP is an extensible structured token that con-
tains information about the current paths from the called system
to the selected system. It has the token number ZEXP-TNM-PROBE-
NCP and the DDL definition ZEXP-DDL-PROBE-NCP. This token is
always present in the response.
ZEXP-MAP-PROBE-NCP contains the following fields:
ZTRIP-TIME is the round-trip time for the probe in hundredths
of a second, including any retransmissions. Since packets may
be retransmitted one or more times during the probe, results
may vary considerably. An unusually large ZTRIP-TIME value
may indicate a problem with the line.
ZNUM-OF-SYS is the number of systems traversed from the
selected system to the called system, not including the
selected system or the called system.
ZSYS-LIST is the system number of one of the systems through
which the probe was made. This field is repeated ZEXP-VAL-
MAX-SYSTEMS (255) times, resulting in an array. The systems
are listed in the order in which they are traversed, starting
with the system adjacent to the selected system and ending
with the system adjacent to the called system. Note that only
the first ZNUM-OF-SYS entries are meaningful.
ZCALLED-SYS is the system number of the called system (ZEXP-
TKN-CALLED-SYS in the command).
ZSEL-SYS is the system number of the selected system (ZEXP-
TKN-SEL-SYS in the command).
