Message Elements for
the OSI/TS Subsystem
The following subsections provide subsystem-specific information about elements of
OSI/TS commands, responses, and event messages. For general information about
these elements, and for descriptions of elements whose meaning is not subsystem-
specific (such as the subsystem ID), refer to the Communications Management
Programming Manual or, for SPI tokens and other definitions, refer to the Distributed
Systems Management (DSM) Programming Manual.
Commands The OSI/TS subsystem supports the following commands:
ABORT
ACTIVATE
ADD
AGGREGATE
ALLOWOPENS
ALTER
DELETE
FORBIDOPENS
GETVERSION
INFO
LISTOBJECTS
LISTOPENS
RESETSTATS
START
STATISTICS
STATUS
STOP
SUSPEND
SWITCH
TRACE
Programmatic commands for the OSI/TS subsystem are identified by command
numbers with symbolic names of the form ZCOM-CMD-
name
, where
name
identifies
the command. For example, the name used by application programs for the ALTER
command is ZCOM-CMD-ALTER. These are the values that can be assigned to the
command number header token, ZSPI-TKN-COMMAND.
These commands and the OSI/TS subsystem responses to them are described in
Section 5.
Object Types The OSI/TS subsystem supports the following object types:
null
PROCESS
ROUTE
SERVICE
SU
All commands and responses contain an object-type token in the header. For the
OSI/TS subsystem, object types are identified in programs by names of the form
