<p>The Retrieve Cluster Information (QcstRetrieveClusterInfo) API retrieves
information about the clustering environment on a requesting node. The
requesting node does not need to be active in the cluster to retrieve the
information. However, some of the information will not be returned if the
requesting node is not currently a member of a cluster and the requesting node
was never activated. This API may be called from a cluster resource group exit
program.</p>
<br>
<h3>Authorities and Locks</h3>
<p>None</p>
<br>
<h3>Required Parameter Group</h3>
<dl>
<dt><strong>Receiver variable</strong></dt>
<dd>OUTPUT; CHAR(*)</dd>
<dd>
<p>The receiver variable that receives the information requested. You can
specify the size of the area to be smaller than the format requested as long as
you specify the length parameter correctly. As a result, the API returns only
the data that the area can hold.</p>
</dd>
<dt><strong>Length of receiver variable</strong></dt>
<dd>INPUT; BINARY(4)</dd>
<dd>
<p>The length of the receiver variable provided. The length of receiver
variable parameter may be specified up to the size of the receiver variable
specified in the user program. If the length of receiver variable parameter
specified is larger than the allocated size of the receiver variable specified
in the user program, the results are not predictable. The minimum length is 8
bytes.</p>
</dd>
<dt><strong>Format name</strong></dt>
<dd>INPUT; CHAR(8)</dd>
<dd>
<p>The content and format of the information that is returned. The possible
format names are as follows:</p>

<h3>Field Descriptions</h3>
<p><strong>Bytes available.</strong> The number of bytes of data available to
be returned to the user.</p>
<p><strong>Bytes returned.</strong> The number of bytes of data returned to the
user.</p>
<p><strong>Cluster name.</strong> The name of the cluster. If no cluster exists
on the system, *NONE is returned.</p>
<p><strong>Current cluster version.</strong> The version at which the nodes in
the cluster are actively communicating with each other. This value in
conjunction with the potential node version determines what nodes can join in
the cluster. This value also determines the cluster's ability to use new
functions supported by the node's potential node version. It is set when the
cluster is created and can be changed by the <a href="clcntchgcv.htm">Adjust
Cluster Version (QcstAdjustClusterVersion) API</a>. If no cluster exists, the
field will be set to 0.</p>
<p><strong>Current cluster version modification level.</strong> The
modification level of the current cluster version. The modification level
further identifies the version at which the nodes in the cluster communicate.
It is updated when code changes that impact the version are applied to the
system. If no cluster exists, the field will be set to 0.</p>
<p><strong>Potential node version.</strong> The version at which the node is
capable of communicating with the other nodes in the cluster. This is the value
associated with the cluster code installed on the node. It will be used to
determine if the node can join a cluster.</p>
<p><strong>Potential node version modification level.</strong> The modification
level of the potential node version. The modification level further identifies
the version at which the node is capable of communicating with the other nodes
in the cluster. It is updated when code changes that impact the version are
applied to the system and will also be used to determine if the node can join a
cluster.</p>
<p><strong>Requesting node id.</strong> The node id of the requesting cluster
node. If no cluster exists or if the cluster has been created but never started
on the system, *NONE is returned.</p>
<p><strong>Reserved.</strong> This field will contain hexadecimal zeroes.<br>
