OSI/TS Definitions Definitions whose names begin with ZOS4 are OSI/TS definitions. These definitions

consist of simple tokens and extensible structured tokens used in OSI/TS commands

and responses. They are provided in the ZSPIDEF.ZOS4DDL file and in the

corresponding files for other languages.

The OSI/TS definitions that appear in several commands, responses, or event

messages are described in the following subsections. Information specific to a

particular command, response, or event message is discussed in the individual

command and event-message descriptions in Sections 5 and 6, respectively.

Appendix B provides a complete list of all OSI/TS simple and extensible structured

tokens and gives the token type or token map name for each.

Buffer Declarations The OSI/TS subsystem provides the following buffer declarations for SPI message

buffers.

ZOS4-DDL-MSG-BUFFER

is a message buffer whose size is that recommended for command messages and

for responses in which each reply message contains a single response record.

def ZOS4-DDL-MSG-BUFFER.

02 Z-MSGCODE type ZSPI-DDL-INT.

02 Z-BUFLEN type ZSPI-DDL-INT.

02 Z-OCCURS type ZSPI-DDL-INT.

02 Z-FILLER type ZSPI-DDL-BYTE

occurs 0 to ZOS4-VAL-BUFLEN

times depending on Z-OCCURS.

end.

ZOS4-VAL-BUFLEN

is the same size as ZCOM-VAL-BUFLEN, the recommended buffer size for data

communications subsystems.

ZOS4-DDL-MAX-MSG-BUF

is a message buffer of the maximum allowable size.
