NAME

dpm_put - make a set of existing files available for I/O

SYNOPSIS

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

int  dpm_put  (int  nbreqfiles,  struct  dpm_putfilereq  *reqfiles, int
nbprotocols, char **protocols, char  *u_token,  int  overwrite,  time_t
retrytime,  char  *r_token,  int  *nbreplies,  struct dpm_putfilestatus
**filestatuses)

DESCRIPTION

dpm_put makes a set of existing files available for I/O.

The input arguments are:

nbreqfiles: specifies the number of files belonging to the request.
reqfiles: specifies the array of file requests (dpm_putfilereq structures).
struct dpm_putfilereq {: char *to_surl;
time_t lifetime;
time_t f_lifetime;
char f_type;
char s_token[CA_MAXDPMTOKENLEN+1];
char ret_policy;
char ac_latency;
u_signed64 requested_size;
};
nbprotocols: specifies the number of protocols.
protocols: specifies the array of protocols.
u_token: specifies the user provided description associated with the request.
overwrite: if set to 1, it allows to overwrite an existing file.
retrytime: This field is currently ignored.
The output arguments are:
r_token: Address of a buffer to receive the system allocated token. The buffer must be at least CA_MAXDPMTOKENLEN+1 characters long.
nbreplies: will be set to the number of replies in the array of file statuses.
filestatuses: will be set to the address of an array of dpm_putfilestatus structures allocated by the API. The client application is responsible for freeing the array when not needed anymore.
struct dpm_putfilestatus {: char *to_surl;
char *turl;
u_signed64 filesize;
int status;
char *errstring;
time_t pintime;
time_t f_lifetime;
};

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

EFAULT reqfiles, protocols, r_token, nbreplies or filestatuses is: a NULL pointer.
ENOMEM Memory could not be allocated for marshalling the request.
EINVAL nbreqfiles or nbprotocols is not strictly positive, the: protocols are not supported, the length of the user request description is greater than 255 or all file requests have errors.
SENOSHOST Host unknown.
SEINTERNAL Database error.
SECOMERR Communication error.
