Header Tokens
ZSPI-TKN-RETCODE
indicates whether a command completed successfully. If the command completed
successfully, the value of this token is ZCOM-ERR-OK. If the command did not
complete successfully, the value of this token is one of the common data
communications error numbers or an error number specifically defined by the PAM
subsystem. It indicates just one of the reasons the command failed. The meaning of
each error number is subsystem-specific. For descriptions of all PAM error
numbers, refer to Appendix A, Error Numbers and Error Lists
. For descriptions of
all common data communications error numbers, refer to the SPI Common
Extensions Manual.
Header Tokens
The following SPI standard definition header tokens are used by the PAM subsystem:
ZSPI-TKN-CHECKSUM
ZSPI-TKN-COMMAND
ZSPI-TKN-HDRTYPE
ZSPI-TKN-LASTERR
ZSPI-TKN-LASTERRCODE
ZSPI-TKN-MAX-FIELD-VERSION
ZSPI-TKN-MAXRESP
ZSPI-TKN-OBJECT-TYPE
ZSPI-TKN-SERVER-VERSION
ZSPI-TKN-SSID
ZSPI-TKN-USEDLEN
The following information about these definitions is specific to the PAM subsystem:
ZSPI-TKN-COMMAND
specifies the command number of a PAM command. The value of this token is
always ZCOM-CMD-name, where name specifies the command to be performed.
The commands supported by PAM are described in Section 5, Commands and
Responses.
ZSPI-TKN-MAX-FIELD-VERSION
contains the highest version associated with the non-null fields within an extensible
structured token. This value is compared to the server version. If the server version
is lower than the value of the ZSPI-TKN-MAX-FIELD-VERSION, then the
command is rejected.
