SpmiCreateHotSet

Purpose

Creates an empty hotset.

Library

SPMI Library (libSpmi.a)

Syntax

#include sys/Spmidef.h

struct SpmiHotSet *SpmiCreateHotSet()

Description

The SpmiCreateHotSet subroutine creates an empty hotset and returns a pointer to an SpmiHotSet structure.This structure provides the anchor point for a hotset and must exist before the SpmiAddSetHot subroutine can be successfully called.

This subroutine is part of the server option of the Performance Aide for AIX licensed product.

Return Values

The SpmiCreateHotSet subroutine returns a pointer to a structure of type SpmiHotSet if successful. If unsuccessful, the subroutine returns a NULL value.

Error Codes

All SPMI subroutines use external variables to provide error information. To access these variables, an application program must define the following external variables:

• extern char SpmiErrmsg[];
• extern int SpmiErrno;

If the subroutine returns without an error, the SpmiErrno variable is set to 0 and the SpmiErrmsg character array is empty. If an error is detected, the SpmiErrno variable returns an error code, as defined in the sys/Spmidef.h file, and the SpmiErrmsg variable contains text, in English, explaining the cause of the error.
