Top Forums Programming when socket know the peer machin has already been down? Post 302344287 by Sedighzadeh on Saturday 15th of August 2009 02:32:25 PM
Old 08-15-2009
in fact i was using TCP for a fault tolerant system(Redundant Servers). I have 2 servers.One is in standby mode and the other in active mode.Whenever the active server went down, the standby server takes the role.I wrote a small application that is run on both servers. In one it is in server mode and in another it is in client.For this scenario it seems that TCP is not well suited. By your suggestion about "best-effort" delivery mechanism i read internal details of TCP protocol and reached your experience! Thank u.
Any way, i will try ping. it may help to reach my goal.Any suggestion for my redundant servers well appreciated.

Thanks in advance

rpc_allow_remote_shutdown(3ncs) 										   rpc_allow_remote_shutdown(3ncs)

Name
       rpc_allow_remote_shutdown - allow or disallow remote shutdown of a server (server only)

Syntax
       #include <idl/c/rpc.h>

       void rpc_$allow_remote_shutdown(allow, checkproc, status)
       unsigned long allow;
       rpc_$shut_check_fn_t checkproc;
       status_$t *status;

Arguments
       allow		   A value indicating `false' if zero, `true' otherwise.

       checkproc	   A pointer to a Boolean function.

       status		   The completion status.  If the completion status returned in is equal to status_$ok , then the routine that supplied it
			   was successful.

Description
       The routine allows or disallows remote callers to shut down a server using

       By default, servers do not allow remote shutdown via If a server calls with allow true (not zero) and checkproc nil, then  remote  shutdown
       will be allowed.  If allow is true and checkproc is not nil, then when a remote shutdown request arrives, the function denoted by checkproc
       is called and the shutdown is allowed if the function returns true.  If allow is false (zero), remote shutdown is disallowed.

Diagnostics
       This section lists status codes for errors returned by this routine in

       rpc_$not_in_call    An internal error.

       rpc_$you_crashed    This error can occur if a server has crashed and restarted.	A client RPC runtime library sends the error to the server
			   if  the  client  makes  a  remote  procedure  call before the server crashes, then receives a response after the server
			   restarts.

       rpc_$proto_error    An internal protocol error.
