NOF Indications
DIRECTORY_INDICATION
AP_NO
No previous directory indications were lost.
removed
Specifies whether the indicated resource has been removed from the directory or added to it. Possible values
are:
AP_YES
The entry has been removed.
AP_NO
The entry has been added.
resource_name
Fully qualified name of the resource. The name is a 17-byte EBCDIC string, padded on the right 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.
invalid
When an end node registers its resources with a network node, new directory entries are added to the network
node’s directory database for these resources. If the database already contains an explicitly defined entry for
one of these resources, but the entry does not match the registered resource, SNAplus2 removes the entry
that is not valid and replaces it with the correct entry. This parameter is used to indicate whether the entry
has been removed because it was not valid and has been replaced by the correct entry from the registered
resource or because it was explicitly deleted. Possible values are:
AP_YES
The entry has been removed because it was incorrect.
AP_NO
The entry has been removed because it was explicitly deleted.
If the local node is not a network node, or if removed is set to
AP_NO, this parameter is not used.
resource_type
Resource type. Possible values are:
AP_NNCP_RESOURCE
Network node.
AP_ENCP_RESOURCE
End node.
AP_LU_RESOURCE
LU.
parent_name
Fully qualified name of parent resource. If resource_type is
AP_NNCP_RESOURCE, this is set to 17 binary
zeros.
The name is a 17-byte EBCDIC string, padded on the right 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.
