ZSPI-TKN-RETCODE is the standard SPI return token described in
the
Distributed Systems Management (DSM) Programming Manual
.
Some values of RETCODE that are likely to occur in response to
the STATUS PATH command are the following:
1 (ZEXP-ERR-TOO-MANY-OBJNAMES): More than 30 object names
were in the command.
2 (ZEXP-ERR-NEG-LH-RSP): The EXPAND line handler returned a
negative response.
3 (ZEXP-ERR-EMPT-RSP): The empty response record is being
returned.
5 (ZEXP-ERR-OBJ-TYPE-NAME-MISMATC): A conflict exists be-
tween the object type and an object name.
For descriptions of all EXPAND error numbers and their associated
error lists, refer to Appendix A.
ZSPI-TKN-ERRLIST is a standard SPI error list, as described in
the
Distributed Systems Management (DSM) Programming Manual
. The
list ends with the token ZSPI-TKN-ENDLIST.
ZSPI-TKN-CONTEXT is the standard SPI context token described in
the
Distributed Systems Management (DSM) Programming Manual
.
Operational Notes
• All users can issue the STATUS PATH command.
• To obtain statistical information about a path, use the
STATISTICS PATH command or the RESETSTATS PATH command.
• To obtain the values of the attributes of a path, use the INFO
PATH command.
• Using the token ZSPI-TKN-RESPONSE-TYPE in the command to
request the return of only those response records for paths on
which errors or warnings occurred can result in no information
being returned.
• No summary-state transition is associated with this command.
