Channel in wrong state
- the channel is not in a state where
the reservation can be made.
Port-id
- a port identification to be used in the other Remote
Console Interface functions that require a reservation.
Function:
Releases this system's access to the remote system console.
This
provides an optimization over allowing the remote system's
reservation timer to expire and deallocates the local port
resources.
Note that even though a message cannot be sent to the remote
system, the local resources will still be released. In other
words, from the standpoint of the local system, this function does
not fail.
Inputs:
Port-id
- a port identification assigned
by the
Reserve-remote-console function.
outputs:
Return-code
- the status of the request. One of:
Success
- request sent.
Transmit failed
- the local transmitter could not transmit the
request.
Unrecognized port
- there is no open port with the specified
identification.
Channel in wrong state
- the channel is not in a state where a
transmit can be done.
