NOF API Verbs
QUERY_ACTIVE_TRANSACTION
This name is normally an EBCDIC string, using type-1134 characters (uppercase A–Z and numerals 0–9);
alternatively, it can be one of the MS Discipline-Specific Application Programs specified in SNA Management
Services Reference. The string must be 8 characters long; pad on the right with EBCDIC space characters
(0x40) if necessary.
seq_num_dt
Sequence number date/time correlator (17 bytes long) of the original transaction, as defined in the IBM SNA
Formats manual. This parameter is ignored if list_options is set to AP_FIRST_IN_LIST.
3.90.3 Returned Parameters: Successful Execution
If the verb executes successfully, SNAplus2 returns the following parameters:
primary_rc
AP_OK
buf_size
Length of the information returned in the supplied buffer.
total_buf_size
Returned value indicating the size of buffer that would have been required to return all the list information
requested. A value greater than buf_size indicates that not all the available entries were returned.
num_entries
Number of entries returned in the data buffer.
total_num_entries
Total number of entries available. A value greater than num_entries indicates that not all the available entries
were returned.
Each entry in the data buffer consists of the following parameters:
active_transaction_data.overlay_size
The size of the returned
active_transaction_data
structure, and therefore the offset to the start of the next entry
in the data buffer.
When your application needs to go through the returned buffer to find each
active_transaction_data
structure
in turn, it must use this value to move to the correct offset for the next data structure, and must not use the
C sizeof() operator. This is because the size of the returned overlay may increase in future releases of
SNAplus2; using the returned overlay size ensures that your application will continue to work with future
releases.
active_transaction_data.fq_origin_cp_name
Fully qualified control point name of the origin for the transaction. The name is a 17-byte EBCDIC string,
right-padded with EBCDIC spaces. It consists of a network ID of up to 8 A-string characters, an EBCDIC
dot (period) character, and a network name of up to 8 A-string characters.
active_transaction_data.origin_ms_appl_name
Application name of the origin for the transaction. This name is normally an 8-character EBCDIC string, using
type-1134 characters (uppercase A–Z and numerals 0–9); alternatively, it can be one of the MS Discipline-
Specific Application Programs specified in Systems Network Architecture: Management Services Reference
(see Related Publications).
active_transaction_data.fq_dest_cp_name
Fully qualified control point name of the destination for the transaction. The name is a 17-byte EBCDIC
string, right-padded with EBCDIC spaces. It consists of a network ID of up to 8 A-string characters, an
EBCDIC dot (period) character, and a network name of up to 8 A-string characters.
