The Document Interchange Architecture Query Reply
This query reply indicates the Document Interchange Architecture (DIA) function set supported. The format of the DIA Query Reply is as follows:
| Offset | Length | Content | Meaning |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0 | 1 word | Length | Length of structure (includes self-defining parameters) |
| 2 | 1 byte | X'81' | Query reply ID |
| 3 | 1 byte | X'97' | IBM DIA |
| 4–5 | 2 bytes | FLAGS | Reserved |
| 6–7 | 2 bytes | LIMIN | Maximum DDM bytes allowed in inbound transmission |
| 8–9 | 2 bytes | LIMOUT | Maximum DDM bytes allowed in outbound transmission |
| 10 | 1 byte | NFS | Number of 3-byte function set IDs that follow |
| 11–13 | 3 bytes | DIAFS | DIA function set identifier |
| 14– (13+(N*3)) | N*3 bytes | DIAFSs | Additional DIA function set IDs |
| 14+(N*3) | 1 byte | X'04' | Parameter length |
| 15+(N*3) | 1 byte | X'01' | Direct access |
| 16+(N*3) | 1 word | DOID | Destination/origin ID assigned by the subsystem |
The DIA auxiliary device processor supports only the direct access self-defining parameter. It is defined in Table 2.
The presence of the direct access ID self-defining parameter indicates that the auxiliary device can be accessed directly by using the destination/origin structured field.
| Offset | Length | Content | Meaning |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0 | 1 byte | X'04' | Parameter length |
| 1 | 1 byte | X'01' | Direct access ID |
| 2–3 | 2 bytes | DOID | Destination/origin ID |
- DOID
- The value in these bytes is used in the ID field of the destination/origin structured field to identify the auxiliary device as the destination or origin of the data that follows.
