NOF API Verbs
QUERY_MDS_APPLICATION
3.135.2 Supplied Parameters
The application supplies the following parameters:
opcode
AP_QUERY_MDS_APPLICATION
buf_ptr
A pointer to a data buffer that SNAplus2 will use to return the requested information.
buf_size
Size of the supplied data buffer.
num_entries
Maximum number of applications for which data should be returned. To request data for a specific application
rather than a range, specify the value 1. To return as many entries as possible, specify zero; in this case,
SNAplus2 will return the maximum number of entries that can be accommodated in the supplied data buffer.
list_options
The position in the list of applications from which SNAplus2 should begin to return data. Possible values are:
AP_FIRST_IN_LIST
Start at the first entry in the list.
AP_LIST_INCLUSIVE
Start at the entry specified by the application parameter.
AP_LIST_FROM_NEXT
Start at the entry immediately following the entry specified by the application parameter.
For more information about how the list is ordered and how the application can obtain specific entries from
it, see Section 2.7, List Options For QUERY_* Verbs.
application
Application name for which information is required, or the name to be used as an index into the list. This
parameter is ignored if list_options is set to AP_FIRST_IN_LIST. This is an 8-byte type-A EBCDIC string,
padded on the right with spaces if the name is shorter than 8 characters.
