Global defaults are initialized at startup and can be set or
retrieved using VS_Global_SetFields and
VS_Global_GetFields function calls.
Command-specific parameter defaults for the Lock
command are set with VSCMD_Lock_SetDefaults. If
command-specific defaults are set for the Lock command,
they override the global defaults for all Lock requests.
The following fields can be retrieved from the status handle
after a successful Lock request:
•VSID_Drive_ID,
• VSID_DRIVE_ID_ENTRY,
VSID_DRIVE_ID_TABLE,
• VSID_ERROR_CODE,
• VSID_ERROR_CODE_ENTRY,
VSID_ERROR_TABLE,
VSID_LOCK_ID,
VSID_SEQUENCE_NUM,
VSID_SEQUENCE_TABLE,
VSID_STATUS_CODE,
VSID_STATUS_TYPE,
VSID_USER_FIELD.
Tip
To override a default (global or command-specific)
parameter value for a specific instance of a Lock request,
the parameter identifier and the value to be used for the
parameter can be submitted on the command request
itself.
