DatabaseEnvironment Class See Also Send Feedback

Hold an election for the master of a replication group.

Namespace: BerkeleyDB
Assembly: libdb_dotnet60 (in libdb_dotnet60.dll) Version: 6.0.20.0

# Syntax

C#
    public void RepHoldElection(
    	uint nsites,
    	uint nvotes
    )

Visual Basic (Declaration)
    Public Sub RepHoldElection ( _
    	nsites As UInteger, _
    	nvotes As UInteger _
    )

Visual C++
    public:
    void RepHoldElection(
    	unsigned int nsites,
    	unsigned int nvotes
    )

#### Parameters

nsites
  Type: System..::.UInt32
  The number of replication sites expected to participate in the election. Once the current site has election information from that many sites, it will short-circuit the election and immediately cast its vote for a new master. This parameter must be no less than nvotes, or 0 if the election should use RepNSites. If an application is using master leases, then the value must be 0 and RepNSites must be used.

nvotes
  Type: System..::.UInt32
  The minimum number of replication sites from which the current site must have election information, before the current site will cast a vote for a new master. This parameter must be no greater than nsites, or 0 if the election should use the value ((nsites / 2) + 1).
