FTM_FILE_OPEN_REQ_
process-mode is an optional parameter.
contents-type input
INT .EXT:ref:(ZFTM-DDL-CNTNTS-TYPE)
allows you to specify the abstract data type of the contents of the file, including the 
structuring information. The contents-type parameter must either match the 
contents type of the file being opened or be an allowed simplification of the 
document type. 
contents-type is an optional parameter. If you do not specify contents-type, 
the default value is ZFTM-VAL-CNTNTSTYPE-UNKNOWN, and the remote 
responder returns the valid contents-type information for the file, which you 
retrieve via the FTM_FILE_OPEN_CNF_ procedure call.
If you do specify contents-type, the parameter value includes a document type 
with associated parameters (universal-class, string-significance, and 
maximum-string-length). All are optional parameters; however, if you specify 
a value for maximum-string-length, it should be in the range of 1 through 
7148. For a full description of contents-type and its usage, see the OSI/FTAM 
Programming Guide.
Supported document types and their associated object identifiers include the 
following:
If the remote responder does not return one of these document types, a protocol 
violation occurs.
account input
INT .EXT:ref:(ZAPS-DDL-CHAR32)
identifies the account to be charged for costs incurred in the regime being 
established.
account is an optional parameter. If you omit account, no account name will be 
supplied to the remote responder.
Some responders require an account name. For information on the accounting 
methods being used, refer to the responder documentation.
