STD.File.Replicate ( filename [ , timeout ] [ , espserverIPport ])
dfuwuid := STD.File.fReplicate( filename [ , timeout ] [ , espserverIPport ]);
| filename | A null-terminated string containing the logical name of the file. |
| timeout | Optional. An integer value indicating the timeout setting. If omitted, the default is -1. If set to zero (0), execution control returns immediately to the ECL workunit without waiting for the DFU workunit to complete. |
| espserverIPport | Optional. This should almost always be omitted, which then defaults to the value contained in the lib_system.ws_fs_server attribute. When not omitted, it should be a null-terminated string containing the protocol, IP, port, and directory, or the DNS equivalent, of the ESP server program. This is usually the same IP and port as ECL Watch, with "/FileSpray" appended. |
| dfuwuid | The attribute name to receive the null-terminated string containing the DFU workunit ID (DFUWUID) generated for the job. |
The Replicate function copies the individual parts of the filename to the mirror disks for the cluster. Typically, this means that the file part on one node's C drive is copied to its neighbors D drive.
Example:
A := STD.File.Replicate('Fred');
