Name Service

The name service is used to convert an STOKEN or real address of a data space ASTE into:

An ASID for an address space
A data space name and owning ASID
A hiperspace name and owning ASID
A common addressable data space (CADS) name and owning ASID
A subspace name and owning ASID

The name service can identify the data space for an STOKEN or a real ASTE address if the data space is accessible in the dumped environment; storage from the data space does not need to be dumped to enable the identification.

If requested, the service generates one line of output (see Figure 1) describing the data space and/or address space associated with the specified STOKEN.
