NAME

       dpns_addreplica - add a replica for a given file

SYNOPSIS

       #include <sys/types.h>
       #include "dpns_api.h"

       int  dpns_addreplica  (const  char  *guid, struct dpns_fileid *file_uniqueid, const char *server, const char *sfn, const char status, const
       char f_type, const char *poolname, const char *fs)

       int dpns_addreplicax (const char *guid, struct dpns_fileid *file_uniqueid, const char *server, const char *sfn, const  char  status,  const
       char f_type, const char *poolname, const char *fs, const char r_type, const char *setname)

DESCRIPTION

       dpns_addreplica	adds a replica for a given file.  The file can be specified by guid or by file_uniqueid.  If both are given, file_uniqueid
       is used.

       guid   specifies the Grid Unique IDentifier.

       server is either the Storage Element fully qualified hostname or the disk server.

       sfn    is either the Site URL or the Physical File Name for the replica.

       status can be set to

	      -      file is available

	      P      file is being populated

	      D      file is being deleted.

       f_type may be one of the following:

	      V      Volatile

	      D      Durable

	      P      Permanent.

       poolname
	      specifies the disk pool name (this argument is only meaningful for the Disk Pool Manager).

       fs     specifies the mount point of the dedicated filesystem (this argument is only meaningful for the Disk Pool Manager).

       r_type may be one of the following:

	      P      Primary

	      S      Secondary.

       setname
	      is either the replica set name or the space token.

RETURN VALUE

       This routine returns 0 if the operation was successful or -1 if the operation failed. In the latter case, serrno is set appropriately.

ERRORS

       ENOENT	    The named file does not exist.

       EACCES	    Search permission is denied on a component of the parent directory or the effective user ID does not match the  owner  of  the
		    file or read permission on the file entry itself is denied.

       EFAULT	    guid and file_uniqueid are NULL pointers or server or sfn is a NULL pointer.

       EEXIST	    The sfn exists already.

       EISDIR	    The file is not a regular file.

       EINVAL	    The  length  of  guid  exceeds  CA_MAXGUIDLEN,  the length of server exceeds CA_MAXHOSTNAMELEN, the length of poolname exceeds
		    CA_MAXPOOLNAMELEN or the length of fs exceeds 79 or setname exceeds 36.

       ENAMETOOLONG The length of sfn exceeds CA_MAXSFNLEN.

       SENOSHOST    Host unknown.

       SENOSSERV    Service unknown.

       SECOMERR     Communication error.

       ENSNACT	    Name server is not running or is being shutdown.
