General Configuration APIs
The general configuration APIs allow you to get information about the configuration status of the system and about individual configuration descriptions.
The general configuration APIs are:
- Change Configuration Description (QDCCCFGD) changes the value of one or more parameters in an existing configuration description. This API is intended for applications using new configuration capabilities not yet available through CL commands.
- Configure Activation Engine (QAENGCFG) changes the configuration settings for the activation engine.
- List Configuration Descriptions (QDCLCFGD) returns a list of configuration descriptions.
- List Network Server Configuration (QFPRLNWS) returns a list of network server configurations.
- Modify Partition Resources (dlpar_set_resources) modifies the configuration of the current partition.
- Open List of ASPs (QYASPOL) generates a list of ASPs or information about an ASP.
- Process Install Disk Configuration Option (QINPIDCO) specifies the disk configuration option to be used on the next automatic installation.
- Retrieve Configuration Status (QDCRCFGS) retrieves the current status of a controller, device, line, or network interface.
- Retrieve Controller Description (QDCRCTLD) retrieves information about a controller description.
- Retrieve Device Description (QDCRDEVD) retrieves information about a device description.
- Retrieve Line Description (QDCRLIND) retrieves information about a line description.
- Retrieve Network Server Configuration (QFPRRNWS) retrieves information about network server configurations.
- Retrieve Network Server Description (QDCRNWSD) retrieves information about a network server description.
- Retrieve Partition Information (dlpar_get_info) Returns information about configuration and CPU utilization of the partition on which this API is called.
The device configuration exit programs are:
- Network Event Notification (QIBM_QNM_EVENT_DTA) logs notification messages to data queues when network events take place.
- Vary Configuration (QIBM_QDC_VRYEXIT) runs all exit programs for which the program data indicates the object type and configuration type match the object being varied on.
