HP UX 11i v1 I/O Cards manual

	ZCOM C I/F Library Routines
	ZCONFIG (3X)
Interface	There are 6 interface configuration actions. They are used to alter the
Configuration	parameters related to an interface card, and for controlling the operation
	of an interface card.
	Action ZcDSC_CHNG_FW_FILE (1) modifies the firmware file name
	(used to download the MUX card). This change will have no effect until
	the interface card is restarted, causing the new firmware file to be used
	to download the card.
	Action ZcDSC_CREATE_IFT (2) allocates the internal data structures
	required for a new interface card. That is, it creates a new Interface
	Table entry.
	Action ZcDSC_START_CARD (3) starts up an interface. This initializes
	the hardware, the ports and terminals according to the configuration
	kept in the ZCOM tables. In functionality, it is identical to a zmon restart
	command.
	Action ZcDSC_HALT_CARD (4) halts the hardware and stops new
	requests to the ACC interface card. All pending buffers and terminals
	linked to the interface remain unchanged. This function prepares an
	Interface Table entry for reassignment to different hardware (a new
	MUX interface card).
	Action ZcDSC_STOP_CARD (5) stops an interface card as in action
	ZcDSC_HALT_CARD. In addition, all buffers linked to the interface and
	its terminals are released. Terminals are then set to unavailable. This
	function may be used to prepares an interface for re-linking to different
	hardware, or to eliminate all pending resources for a failed card. It is
	identical to a zmon shutdown command.
	Action ZcDSC_REASSIGN_IFT (6) associates an interface table entry
	with a different MUX interface card. An interface must be halted or
	stopped (i.e. action ZcDSC_HALT_CARD or ZcDSC_STOP_CARD) before
	this request can be issued.
