SEND Statement
identifier-1
is a data item to be sent to the server. The data item represented by this identifier
cannot exceed 32000 bytes. If identifier-1 is a variable-length data item, the
SEND statement sends only the currently defined occurrence (a variable-length data
item is an item defined with an OCCURS DEPENDING ON clause).
If this parameter is omitted, zero bytes are sent to the server. A reply will still be
returned from the server.
server-class-name
identifies the server class for which a message is intended. The server-class-
name can be a nonnumeric literal or a data item. The size of the field containing
server-class-name can be 1 through 15 characters.
This is the logical server class name used in the PATHCOM ADD SERVER
command.
pathmon-name
is the name of the PATHMON process that controls the links to the server class
named in the server-class-name parameter. The pathmon-name can be a
nonnumeric literal or a data item. The field containing pathmon-name can have
up to 15 characters, but the TCP passes only the first 5 characters in network
communications.
A SEND statement directed through an external PATHMON must specify a valid
network process name. The value specified for pathmon-name must begin with a
$ and can be followed by 1 to 4 alphanumeric characters.
If this parameter is omitted, the PATHMON that controls the server class is assumed
to have the same name as the PATHMON process that controls the TCP.
system-name
is the name of the Compaq NonStop™ Himalaya system on which the named
PATHMON process is running. The system-name can be a nonnumeric literal or
a data item. The field containing system-name can have up to 15 characters, but
the TCP passes only the first 8 characters in network communications.
The value specified for system-name must be a valid network system name that
begins with a \ and can be followed by 1 to 7 alphanumeric characters. If this
parameter is omitted, the NonStop™ Himalaya system name of the PATHMON that
controls the server class is assumed to be the same as the system name of the
PATHMON that controls the TCP.
reply-code-value
is an integer literal or integer data item that specifies an expected reply code from
the server. The maximum number of reply code values associated with one
YIELDS clause is 255.
