#include <db.h> int DB_ENV->rep_set_limit(DB_ENV *env, u_int32_t gbytes, u_int32_t bytes);
The DB_ENV->rep_set_limit()
method sets
record transmission throttling. This is a byte-count limit on the
amount of data that will be transmitted from a site in response to
a single message processed by the
DB_ENV->rep_process_message()
method.
The limit is not a hard limit, and the record that exceeds the limit
is the last record to be sent.
Record transmission throttling is turned on by default with a limit of 10MB.
If the values passed to the DB_ENV->rep_set_limit()
method are both zero, then the transmission limit is turned off.
The database environment's replication subsystem may also be configured using the environment's DB_CONFIG file. The syntax of the entry in that file is a single line with the string "rep_set_limit", one or more whitespace characters, and the limit specified in two parts: the gigabytes and the bytes values. For example, "rep_set_limit 0 1048576" sets a 1 megabyte limit. Because the DB_CONFIG file is read when the database environment is opened, it will silently overrule configuration done before that time.
The DB_ENV->rep_set_limit()
method
configures a database environment, not only operations performed
using the specified DB_ENV
handle.
The DB_ENV->rep_set_limit()
method may be
called at any time during the life of the application.
The DB_ENV->rep_set_limit()
method returns a non-zero error value on failure and 0 on success.
The gbytes parameter specifies the number of gigabytes which, when added to the bytes parameter, specifies the maximum number of bytes that will be sent in a single call to the DB_ENV->rep_process_message() method.
The bytes parameter specifies the number of bytes which, when added to the gbytes parameter, specifies the maximum number of bytes that will be sent in a single call to the DB_ENV->rep_process_message() method.
