High Availability Monitors Version A.03.02 Release Notes

NOF Indications
NOF_STATUS_INDICATION
Chapter 61136
NOF_STATUS_INDICATION
This indication is generated when the application can no longer access
its connected target (because the SNAplus2 software on the target
computer has been stopped, or because the communications path to the
target computer has failed). If the target is the domain configuration file,
it is also generated if another server takes over as master (and therefore
the connected target file is no longer the master copy of the file).
The application does not need to register explicitly for this indication.
SNAplus2 will return it to any application that has registered for any
type of indications on the specified target handle. If the application is
currently registered to receive indications using more than one callback
routine, SNAplus2 returns this indication to the first routine registered.
After the application receives an indication that the target can no longer
be accessed, all subsequent verbs using the relevant target handle will
be rejected, apart from DISCONNECT_NODE or CLOSE_FILE (to end
the application's connection to the target). In addition, any registrations
for indications on this target handle will be lost; in order to continue
receiving indications when the target becomes available, the application
must reconnect to the target and reregister for the required indications.
