NOF API Verbs (ACTIVATE_SESSION to OPEN_FILE)
DEFINE_LS
Chapter 3264
Retry count for reactivating a failed LS. This
parameter is used to specify whether SNAplus2 should
attempt to reactivate the LS if it fails while in use (or if
an attempt to start the LS fails).
Specify zero to indicate that SNAplus2 should not
attempt to reactivate the LS, or specify the number of
retries to be made. A value of 65,535 indicates that
SNAplus2 should retry indefinitely until the LS is
activated.
SNAplus2 waits for the time specified by the
react_timer parameter above between successive
retries. If the retry count is reached without
successfully reactivating the LS, or if a STOP_LS is
issued while SNAplus2 is retrying the activation, no
further retries are made; the LS remains inactive
unless START_LS is issued for it.
If the auto_act_supp parameter is set to AP_YES, the
reactivation timer fields are ignored; if the link fails,
SNAplus2 does not attempt to reactivate it until the
user application that was using the session attempts to
restart the session.
def_data.port_name
Name of port associated with this link station. This is
an 8-byte ASCII string, padded on the right with
spaces if the name is shorter than 8 bytes, which must
match the name of a defined port.
def_data.adj_cp_name
Fully qualified name of the adjacent CP for this LS.
If the adj_cp_type parameter below is set to
AP_NETWORK_NODE or AP_END_NODE, and preassigned
TG numbers are being used, set this parameter to the
CP name defined at the adjacent node; if the adjacent
node sends a CP name during XID exchange, it will be
checked against this value.
If adj_cp_type is set to AP_BACK_LEVEL_LEN_NODE,
SNAplus2 uses this value only as an identifier; set it to
any string (of the format described below) that does not
match other CP names defined at this node.
