Notes The API must be initialized with a call to VS_Initialize
before this function can be executed.
VolServ generates no intermediate or final status in response to
a Ping request.
VSCMD_Ping triggers no MediaClass callbacks from VolServ.
The total length of time the API software waits for a command
status in synchronous mode from VolServ is
(VSID_RETRY_LIMIT plus 1) multiplied by
VSID_TIMEOUT_VALUE.
The following fields can be retrieved from the status handle
after a successful Ping request:
•VSID_PID,
•VSID_SEQUENCE_NUM,
•VSID_SEQUENCE_TABLE,
•VSID_STATUS_CODE,
•VSID_STATUS_TYPE,
•VSID_USER_FIELD.
