VOTEQUORUM_QDISK_RCorosync3Cluster Engine ProgrammVOTEQUORUM_QDISK_REGISTER(3)NAME
votequorum_qdisk_register - Registers a new quorum device
SYNOPSIS
#include <corosync/votequorum.h>
int votequorum_qdisk_register(votequorum_handle_t handle, char * name,
unsigned int votes);
DESCRIPTION
The votequorum_qdisk_register is used to register a new quorum device.
A quorum device is an external way of adding votes to a small cluster.
The quorum device is, in effect, a pseudo node in the cluster that pro‐
vide votes based on some external device, usually a shared disk parti‐
tion or perhaps a network router.
This call creates the device but does not mark it active. votequo‐
rum_qdisk_poll must be called for the votes to be included in the quo‐
rum calculation.
Note that it is the responsibility of the quorum device subsystem (not
provided as part of votequorum) to keep all nodes informed of the quo‐
rum device status.
RETURN VALUE
This call returns the CS_OK value if successful, otherwise an error is
returned.
ERRORS
The errors are undocumented.
