Name

rmtSendSync - remote - send a sync msg

Description

rmtSendSync passes a sync msg to dbman.

dbman echos the record back to the sender without changing it. This allows a client program to syncronize it’s connection with dbman, i.e. it can ensure that all of the transactions passed to dbman have been processed up to the point of the sync msg.

There may be more than one sync msg outstanding at any time so the QUEDISK.Value field can be used to pass a serial number.

The request is passed in remote mode using a QUEDISK record.

This function is part of librmt.

Syntax

int rmtSendSync(
int fo,
double V,
int verbosity
);

Arguments

fo


The file descriptor for the connection to dbman.

V

verbosity

Return Values
