30<b>Description: DB_ENV-&gt;rep_set_priority</b>
31<p>The DB_ENV-&gt;rep_set_priority method specifies the database environment's
32priority in replication group elections.  A special value of
330 indicates that this environment cannot be a replication
34group master.</p>
35<p>The database environment's replication subsystem may also be configured using the
36environment's <a href="../ref/env/db_config.html#DB_CONFIG">DB_CONFIG</a> file.  The syntax of the entry in that
37file is a single line with the string "rep_set_priority", one or more whitespace
38characters, and the priority of this site.
39For example, "rep_set_priority 1" sets the priority of this site to 1.
40Because the <a href="../ref/env/db_config.html#DB_CONFIG">DB_CONFIG</a> file is read when the database environment
41is opened, it will silently overrule configuration done before that
42time.</p>
43<p>The DB_ENV-&gt;rep_set_priority method configures a database environment, not only operations
44performed using the specified <a href="../api_c/env_class.html">DB_ENV</a> handle.</p>
45<p>The DB_ENV-&gt;rep_set_priority method may be called at any time during the life of the
46application.</p>
47<p>The DB_ENV-&gt;rep_set_priority method
48returns a non-zero error value on failure
49and 0 on success.
50</p>
51<b>Parameters</b> <br>
52 <b>priority</b><ul compact><li>The priority of this database environment in the replication group.  The
53priority must be a non-zero integer, or 0 if this environment cannot be
54a replication group master.  (See <a href="../ref/rep/pri.html">Replication environment priorities</a> for more information).</ul>

56<hr size=1 noshade>
57<b>Description: DB_ENV-&gt;rep_get_priority</b>
58<p>The DB_ENV-&gt;rep_get_priority method returns the database environment priority.</p>
59<p>The DB_ENV-&gt;rep_get_priority method may be called at any time during the life of the
60application.</p>
61<p>The DB_ENV-&gt;rep_get_priority method
62returns a non-zero error value on failure
63and 0 on success.
64</p>
65<b>Parameters</b> <br>
66 <b>priorityp</b><ul compact><li>The DB_ENV-&gt;rep_get_priority method returns  the
67database environment priority in <b>priorityp</b>.</ul>
