This structure contains information provided by DB2 to set up and to establish a logical link with the vendor device.
| Note: | All fields are NULL terminated strings. |
Table 81. Fields in the INIT-INPUT Structure
| Field Name | Data Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| DB2_session | struct DB2_info | A description of the session from the DB2 perspective. |
| size_options | unsigned short | The length for the options field. |
| size_HI_order | unsigned long | High order 32 bits of DB size estimate in bytes, total size is 64 bits. |
| size_LOW_order | unsigned long | Low order 32 bits of DB size estimate in bytes, total size is 64 bits. |
| num_sessions | unsigned short | Number of sessions requested by the user when backup or restore was invoked. |
| prompt_lv | char | Prompting level requested by the user when backup or restore was invoked. Maximum length of string it points to is 1 character. |
| options | void | This information is passed from the application when the backup or restore function is invoked. This data structure must be flat. In other words, no level of indirection is supported. Note that no byte-reversal is done and code page is not checked for this data. |
| reserve | void | Reserved for future use. |
