# votequorum\_qdisk\_poll(3)

Tells votequorum the result of the quorum device poll

## NAME

votequorum\_qdisk\_poll - Tells votequorum the result of the quorum device poll

## SYNOPSIS

**#include \<corosync/votequorum.h\>**

**int votequorum\_qdisk\_poll(votequorum\_handle\_t** *handle***, unsigned int** *state***);**

## DESCRIPTION

The **votequorum\_qdisk\_poll** is called by the quorum device subsyetem (not provided as part of votequorum) to tell the voting system if the qurum device is present/active or not. If **state** is 1 then the votes for the device are included in the quorum calculation, otherwise not. This routine should be called at regular intervals to ensure that the device status is always known to votequorum. If **votequorum\_qdisk\_poll** is not called after (default) 10 seconds then the device will be deeded to be dead and its votes removed from the cluster. This does not unregister the device. The default poll time can be changed by setting the object database variable quorum.quorumdev\_poll.

## RETURN VALUE

This call returns the CS\_OK value if successful, otherwise an error is returned.

## ERRORS

The errors are undocumented.
