With the exception of the tokens ZSPI-TKN-DATALIST, ZSPI-TKN-ERRLIST, and
ZSPI-TKN-ENDLIST, the order of the tokens listed in the command buffer and
response buffer is not necessarily the order in which they will actually appear in a
command or response. The token ZSPI-TKN-DATALIST, if present in a response,
always appears at the beginning of a response record. The token ZSPI-TKN-ERRLIST,
if present in a response, always appears at the beginning of an error list. The token
ZSPI-TKN-ENDLIST always appears at the end of a response record started by the
token ZSPI-TKN-DATALIST or at the end of an error list started by the token ZSPI-
TKN-ERRLIST.
The list of tokens in the response buffer, except for the token ZSPI-TKN-CONTEXT,
represents the tokens that can be present in one response record. For more
information on response records, and for information on the context token, refer to the
Distributed Systems Management (DSM) Programming Manual.
The notation used in the box for simple tokens is a shorthand version of the essential
information given in the DDL TOKEN-CODE statement. Extensible structured tokens
are defined by using DDL DEF statements.
For each token in the command or response buffer, and for each field of an extensible
structured token in the command or response buffer, the box contains an indication of
the following conditions:
Whether the token or field must be present in the command or is always present in
the response (indicated by the “!{}” notation)
Whether duplicate occurrences of the token are allowed (indicated by the “!...”
notation)
(Note that all comment information is always preceded by a “!”.) See the “Notation
Conventions” at the beginning of this manual for a detailed description of the notation
scheme used.
The token ZSPI-TKN-ERRLIST followed by an ellipsis (...) and the token ZSPI-TKN-
ENDLIST indicates an error list. Tokens that appear in a response record, including
the token ZSPI-TKN-ERRLIST, are indented following the token ZSPI-TKN-
DATALIST to show that they are contained within the data list.
The value of the token ZSPI-TKN-MAXRESP determines whether a data list is used in
a response. For more information on data lists and error lists, refer to the Distributed
Systems Management (DSM) Programming Manual.
Following the box, the tokens in the command buffer and the tokens in the response
buffer are described in the same order as they appear in the box.
