TP-READY Verb
Sync Point Support in the TP-READY Verb
With the addition of sync point support, SNAX/APC has added three new attributes and 
a new IPC header version code to the TP-READY verb.
The new attributes are:
•
SYNCSUPPORT - this TP-READY request attribute specifies whether the 
Transaction Program requires sync point support for its transactions. The possible 
values for this attribute are:  SYNCSUPPORT { Y | N }
•
LUWID - this TP-READY reply attribute contains the newly generated, unique 
LUWID that supports sync point operation. An LUWID is returned in a TP-
READY reply only if the SYNCSUPPORT parameter in the TP-READY request 
was set to ‘Y’.
•
TR-MAX-DATA-LENGTH
The new IPC header version is (S5) is supported by SNAX/APC for sync point support. 
The user-supplied sync point routines should specify the VERSION-CODE field in the 
IPC header as follows:
•
S5 indicates that the TP-READY verb UOW contains the SYNCSUPPORT 
parameter.
