ZMF and SERNET Namespaces

All Web Services tag names must be qualified by a namespace prefix. Two proprietary namespaces have been defined for the ZMF Web Services:

  • ser -- This namespace defines SERNET connectivity and data transfer services.

  • cmn -- This namespace defines ChangeMan ZMF change management services.

SERNET Namespace

SERNET service tag names take the following general form in production code:

<ser:tagname/>

where:

ser: is the literal namespace prefix for SERNET tags

tagname is any SERNET tag name

ChangeMan ZMF Namespace

All ChangeMan ZMF developer and administrator service tag names take the following general form in production code:

<cmn:tagname/>

where:

cmn: is the literal namespace prefix for ChangeMan ZMF tags

tagname is any ChangeMan ZMF tag name

Tag syntax descriptions in this manual might omit namespace prefixes for clarity, but they are not optional in practice.

Important

All Web Services tags must be qualified by the appropriate namespace prefix or the function call will fail. For SERNET tags, the qualified tag name format is <ser:tagname/>. For ZMF tags, the qualified tag name format is <cmn:tagname/>.
