The Retrieve Attribute Names (QmrRtvAttributeNames) API returns a list of supported attributes for a monitored resource entry (MRE). Supported attributes can be monitored for changes in a cluster administrative domain by adding a monitored resource entry specifying the list of attributes. Different attributes may be supported for different cluster versions. The list of supported attribute names returned can be the attributes supported for the current cluster version of the cluster, the attributes supported for the potential cluster version of the local node, or the attributes supported for a specified cluster version. For more information about monitored resources, see Cluster administrative domain.
The list of supported attributes for *AUTL or
*PRTDEV resource types can only be retrieved when the IBM® PowerHA™ for i licensed program
product is installed.The receiver variable that holds the information requested.
The length of the receiver variable in bytes. The minimum length is 8 bytes. If the length of receiver variable is not large enough to hold the entire list of supported attributes for the monitored resource, no records are returned. If the length of the receiver variable specified is larger than the allocated size of the receiver variable specified in the user program, the results are not predictable.
The content and format of the information that is returned. The possible format names are as follows:
| ATTR0100 | Returns a list of supported attribute names. |
The resource information for which supported attribute names are returned.
The content and format of the information which is desired. The possible format names are as follows:
| RSCI0100 | Specifies information about a specific resource or a resource type. |
The cluster information used to return the appropriate attribute information.
The content and format of the information for a cluster. The possible format names are as follows:
| SVRI0200 | Specifies information about a specific cluster or a cluster version. |
The structure in which to return error information. For the format of the structure, see Error Code Parameter.

Attribute name. The name of the attribute. See Attributes that can be monitored in the Implementing high availability topic collection for a list of different attributes for each resource type.
Attribute type. The type of the attribute. Valid values are:
| 0 | SIMPLE | The attribute is represented by a single value. |
| 1 | COMPOUND | The attribute is represented by a variable number of compound attribute entries. |
Bytes available. The number of bytes of data available to be returned to the user.
Bytes returned. The number of bytes of data returned to the user.
Displacement to next attribute name. The displacement in bytes from the start of the current entry to the next entry.
Length of attribute name. The length, in bytes, of the attribute name.
Number of attribute names. The number of attribute names returned.
Offset to attribute names. The offset, in bytes, from the beginning of the receiver variable to the attribute information. If no entries are returned, the offset is set to 0.
Reserved. Set to hex zeros.

Length of fixed fields. The length of the fixed fields in the format description. For RSCI0100 this value must be 32.
Length of resource name. The length, in bytes, of the resource name. The specified length must be at least 1 byte but not longer than 256 bytes.
Offset of resource name. The offset, in bytes, from the beginning of this structure to the first byte of the resource name.
Library name. The name of the library for the resource. This field must be set to blanks.
Resource name. The name of the resource for which the supported attribute names is returned. Valid values are:
| *ANY | Specified for any resource type except *NWSD, *NWSCFG or *PRTDEV to return the list of supported attribute names for the resource type. If the resource type is *SYSVAL, *NETA, *TCPA or *ENVVAR, the list of all supported resources of the specified type are returned. |
| name | The name of the resource for which the list of supported attribute names is to be returned. A resource name must be specified for a resource of type *NWSD, *NWSCFG or *PRTDEV. A resource name can be specified if the resource type is *SYSVAL, *NETA, *TCPA or *ENVVAR. |

Cluster administrative domain name. The name of the cluster administrative domain for which the list of attribute names is retrieved. The cluster administrative domain must exist if a name is specified. If a name is not specified, this field must be set to hex zeros.
Cluster name. The name of the cluster for which the list of attribute names is retrieved. The attribute names which are returned are those that are valid for the current version of the specified cluster. The cluster must exist. If a cluster does not exist, or the list of names to be returned is for a specific supported cluster version or potential cluster version, this field must be set to hex zeros.
