NOF API Verbs
QUERY_LOCAL_LU
3.125.3 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:
local_lu_summary.overlay_size
The size of the returned
local_lu_summary 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
local_lu_summary 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.
local_lu_summary.lu_name
LU name. This name is an 8-byte type-A EBCDIC character string.
local_lu_summary.lu_alias
LU alias. This is an 8-byte ASCII character string.
local_lu_summary.description
A null-terminated text string describing the local LU, as specified in the definition of the LU.
local_lu_detail.overlay_size
The size of the returned
local_lu_detail
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
local_lu_detail 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.
local_lu_detail.lu_name
LU name. This name is an 8-byte type-A EBCDIC character string.
local_lu_detail.def_data.description
A null-terminated text string describing the local LU, as specified in the definition of the LU.
local_lu_detail.def_data.security_list_name
