APS_ASSOC_ATTACH_
APS Procedure Calls
3–28 056783 Tandem Computers Incorporated
tag input
INT(32):value
is for use in nowait mode only. Specify a unique value to identify this instance of
the procedure call. When the operation is complete, the MFM_AWAITIOX_
procedure returns the tag value, allowing you to match the completion with the
correct instance of the procedure call.
service-id input
INT:value
identifies the service to which you are ready to establish a connection. You can
specify ZAPS-VAL-SERVICE-SESSION, ZAPS-VAL-SERVICE-PRESENTATION,
or ZAPS-VAL-SERVICE-ACSE. The default value is ZAPS-VAL-SERVICE-
SESSION. For more information about this parameter, see ZAPS-VAL-SERVICE-
xxx in Appendix A.
subdevice-name input
INT .EXT:ref:(ZAPS-DDL-FILENAME )
is either the name of a new subdevice or the name of an existing static subdevice.
If you are naming a new subdevice, choose a name of eight characters or fewer.
The first character must be a # and the second must be an alphabetic character
within the range A through Y. If the name is shorter than eight characters, you
must fill the remaining character positions with blanks.
If you are reusing a static subdevice, the supplied subdevice name must be fully
qualified (the system name followed by the TAPS server name followed by the
subdevice name, as returned by the APS_STATUS_ procedure following the call to
APS_ASSOC_ATTACH_ that originally created the subdevice).
The subdevice name is not in D-series format. Even if your application is running
on a D-series system, however, you need not convert the name, because it is used
only by your application and not by the Guardian 90 operating system.
