FTM_CHANGE_ATTRIB_REQ_

This procedure allows you to request changes to the file attributes of the file previously

selected.

status return value

INT

indicates the outcome of the call. For a list of possible ZAPS-VAL-STATUS-xxx

values, see Table B-1 on page B-2.

cepi input

INT:value

is the connection endpoint identifier (CEPI) used to identify the specific

association. Use the CEPI value returned from the FTM_INITIALIZE_REQ_

procedure for this association. For additional information on using the cepi

parameter, see the OSI/FTAM Programming Guide.

cepi is a required parameter.

change-attrib input

INT .EXT:ref:(ZFTM-DDL-CHANGE-ATTR)

contains the file attributes to be changed and the new values for the attributes.

change-attrib is a required parameter.

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 your application to match the completion

with the correct instance of the procedure call. For details on the use of the tag

parameter, see the OSI/FTAM Programming Guide.

tag is an optional parameter.

Considerations

•

Before calling this procedure, you must have negotiated the enhanced-file-

management functional unit and the appropriate attribute groups on the

FTM_INITIALIZE_REQ_ call. You must also have set the ZCHNGATTR field of the

requested-access parameter of the select request to ON.

status := FTM_CHANGE_ATTRIB_REQ_ ( cepi ! I
