At the completion of structure alter processing, the system issues
at least one ENF signal to indicate that structure alter processing
has ended.
- If the structure alter resulted in a structure with a smaller
structure size (contract request), then the system issues a generic
ENF event code 35. The ENF signal parameter list does not contain
the structure name, but does imply that additional coupling facility
resources might be available because the structure size is decreased.
Connectors who have been unable to connect to a structure can listen
for this event and then attempt the connect request again.
- The system also issues an ENF event code 35 when structure alter
processing is complete. The signal does not imply
that additional coupling facility resources are available, but simply
indicates that a structure alter has completed. The ENF signal parameter
list presented to an ENF listen exit will contain the name of the
structure. Connectors who have been unable to connect to a structure
can listen for this event.
Connectors wishing to connect to a structure can use the IXCQUERY
macro to verify that the structure alter actually has completed because
ENF 35 is issued for several different events.
