Request Records
Request records are queued to Stack 1 to define the request. They should be transferred as a group (using the QUEUES() function) to prevent processing a partial request. Requests span multiple records and have the following format:
- Record 1 defines the request and the requester. All fields are required and separated by blanks. When a field is omitted, it must contain an asterisk (*) as a placeholder. The record has the following fields:
- REQUEST
- IMOD ID of the requester
- Public stack of the requester to receive the results or * if no acknowledgment is required
- Number of stack data records being passed
- Request text
- Records 2 through n contain stack data to be processed by the server IMOD.
