QUORU...UORATE(3)

💖 QUORU...UORATE(3) 💖

ok so bestie, this is a page from the Corosync Cluster Engine Programmer's Manual and honestly? it's a whole vibe. it's giving "am I in the group chat or am I left on read" but for cluster nodes. let's get into it 🫶

---

✨ NAME ✨

quorum_getquorate — gets the quorate status of the node. that's it. that's the whole job. no cap.

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <corosync/quorum.h>

int quorum_getquorate(quorum_handle_t handle, int *quorate);

look at her. two arguments, one little int, absolutely iconic.

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so the quorum_getquorate function is the moment where you're literally just asking the node: "hey bestie, are you quorate or not?" 💅

here's the tea on what quorate comes back as:

• it's 0 if the node is not part of a quorate partition 😭
• it's 1 otherwise 👑

that's it. that's the whole function. main character energy, minimal drama.

---

⭐ RETURN VALUE ⭐

this call returns the CS_OK value if it ate and left no crumbs (aka it was successful). otherwise, an error gets returned. periodt.

---

💀 ERRORS 💀

ok so when things go wrong, here's the roster of possible errors, and yes you need to know all of them, don't skip:

• CS_ERR_TRY_AGAIN — Resource temporarily unavailable. like when you try again in five minutes and it's still not replying 🙈
• CS_ERR_INVALID_PARAM — Invalid argument. you handed it something cursed and it said no thank you
• CS_ERR_ACCESS — Permission denied. not your house, not your rules 🔥
• CS_ERR_LIBRARY — The connection failed. it's giving ghosted
• CS_ERR_INTERRUPT — System call interrupted by a signal. rude, honestly
• CS_ERR_NOT_SUPPORTED — The requested protocol/functionality not supported. it's just not built like that
• CS_ERR_MESSAGE_ERROR — Incorrect auth message received. something sus showed up at the door 💀
• CS_ERR_NO_MEMORY — Not enough memory to complete the requested task. the brain is full, no thoughts, head empty
