RETN-CODE-DETAIL
is an error number returned by a subsystem other than the TRANSFER delivery
system or is a further qualification of an error detected by the TRANSFER delivery
system.
SERVER-VERSION
is the software version designation of TISERV, returned by the TRANSFER
delivery system. For example, the first TRANSFER version had a designation of
A01.
TIME-ZONE-DIFF
is the difference between the current timestamps of the server and the requester.
This value is expressed in minutes and rounded to the nearest minute.
Whenever a requester establishes a TRANSFER session, the difference in current
times between server and requester is retained as one of the session attributes.
The TRANSFER delivery system uses this time zone difference to translate all
timestamps into the local database frame of reference prior to storage, and to
translate them back to the local time of the requester prior to replying. Thus,
requesters always communicate with the TRANSFER delivery system in their own
local timeframe, and all timestamps are stored relative to the database local time.
The same transformations are applied to any stored time zone differences. The
sender time zone difference stored in a package header is initially set to the session
(server-requester) time zone difference when the package is submitted. Whenever
the package is transferred from one node to another, the following adjustments are
made at the receiving node: the difference in local times between the receiving
node and the transferring node is added to all timestamps (except the delivered
timestamp) and to the time zone difference field.
RESOLVED-NAME
is the resolved name of the correspondent, returned by the TRANSFER delivery
system. If this is a remote name, the session is not established; however, you can
use the returned name to contact the remote server.
