specifies the number of times the inactive timer expired.
ZMAX-XMIT-Q-CNT
specifies the largest size of the transmit queue of this link station since the last

Operational Notes
There are several things you should remember when using the RESETSTATS or
STATISTICS commands:
•
In addition to the statistical information returned for an object, a timestamp is also
associated with each counter returned, indicating when the sample was taken.
Several counters can share the same timestamp. There is also a second timestamp
associated with each resettable counter, recording when the counter was last reset.
Timestamps are field types ZSPI-DDL-TIMESTAMP, which is a four-word
microsecond count, such as is returned by the system procedure
JULIANTIMESTAMP. Both timestamps are returned when the statistical values are
returned in response to either the STATISTICS or RESETSTATS command.
•
The PORT object returns a ZPAM-TKN-OBJ-SUBTYPE token in each response.
The object subtype values are as follows:
ZPAM-VAL-PORT-TYPE-ENET
ZPAM-VAL-PORT-TYPE-LLC1
ZPAM-VAL-PORT-TYPE-LLC2
•
You can use the ZCOM-TKN-SUB token to obtain statistical information for the
specified object and/or its subordinate objects, if any. The acceptable values for this
token are as follows:
ZCOM-VAL-SUB-ALL
returns statistical information for the specified object and its subordinate
objects, if any.
ZCOM-VAL-SUB-NONE
returns statistical information for the specified object, but does not return
information for subordinate objects.
