Integrated Operating Environments APIs

The Integrated Operating Environments APIs provide information about operating environments, such as Windows^(R) or Linux, that are integrated with i5/OS^(TM). For example, attributes of integrated servers can be retrieved, as well as attributes of virtual disk drives and users that are associated with integrated servers.

In addition, to the integrated Windows^(R) or Linux APIs, there are some APIs which allow you to manage monitored resources. A resource may be a system object or a set of attributes not associated with a specific system object, such as the set of system environment variables. System objects and attributes are monitored by the system to allow notifications of changes to the attributes to be passed to a supporting system function or application for system management purposes.

The Integrated Operating Environments APIs are:

• Add Monitored Resource Entry (QfpadAddMonitoredResourceEntry) The Add Monitored Resource Entry (QfpadAddMonitoredResourceEntry) API adds a monitored resource entry for a system resource and its attributes. 
• Open List Network Server Storage Spaces (QFPADOLD) retrieves a list of storage spaces (virtual disk drives) that can be linked to a server.
• Open List Network Server Users (QFPADOLU) generates a list of Windows domains and servers, and the associated profiles enrolled to them in the network.
• Open List Network Servers (QFPADOLS) retrieves a list of servers.
• Process Network Server User (QFPADPNU) performs an error recovery operation on a selected user or group enrollment entry for a particular Windows domain or server.
• Remove Monitored Resource Entry (QfpadRmvMonitoredResourceEntry) The Remove Monitored Resource Entry (QfpadRmvMonitoredResourceEntry) API removes an Monitored Resource Entry (MRE) from the monitored resource directory. 
• Retrieve Monitored Resource Information (QfpadRtvMonitoredResourceInfo) The Retrieve Monitored Resource Information (QfpadRtvMonitoredResourceInfo) API returns information about monitored resources. 
• Retrieve Network Server Information (QFPADRNI) retrieves information from a Windows server.
• Retrieve Network Server User Attributes (QFPADRUA) retrieves the network server attributes for a user or a group.
• Retrieve Remote Network Server Status (QITDRSTS ) retreives the power and operating system state of a remote server.
