MC-GET-ATTRIBUTES Verb
Reply Details
MC-GAR-SYNC-LEVEL
This field contains the synchronization level for the conversation. The three
possible values are N for NONE, C for CONFIRM and S for SYNCPT.
If the synchronization level is NONE, the confirm verb cannot be issued in the
conversation.
MC-GAR-LOCAL-LUNAME
This field contains the name of the local LU, as described in the SNAX/APC
configuration database.
MC-GAR-PARTNER-LUNAME
This field contains the name of the remote LU in session with the local LU.
MC-GAR-PARTNER-UNINTERP-NAME
This field contains the SNANAME name of the remote LU. If the IPC version is S1,
this field is limited to 8 bytes.
RESERVED-2
This is a reserved field. It is not used for IPC version S1.
MC-GAR-MODENAME
This field contains the name of the mode under which the session with the remote
LU was established.
MC-GAR-SESSION-IDENTIFIER
This field contains the session ID of the session that the current conversation is
running on. This field is not used if the IPC version is S1.
Considerations
This reply format will be returned if the IPC version is set to S2 or above. If a
PTNR-LU’s SNA name is configured with a fully qualified LU name, and the MC-
GET-ATTRIBUTE verb is issued with the version 1 IPC header (S1), only the SNA
network LU name will be returned in the MC-GAR-PARTNER-UNINTERP-NAME
reply field (the network ID will not be returned).
The MC-GET-ATTRIBUTE verb returns the session ID the conversation is using.
This may be used on a subsequent DEACTIVATE-SESSION to deactivate the
session if on a parallel session LU.
If an MC- GET-ATTRIBUTE verb is processing when SNAX/APC receives a
CANCEL system message from the application program, SNAX/APC deactivates
the session and replies to the cancelled IPC. SNAX/APC frees the internal resources
after finishing the processing of the verb.
