VOTEQ...GISTER(3)

💖 NAME 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to the votequorum_qdevice_unregister page from the Corosync Cluster Engine Programmer's Manual 🎀 — and yes, this is the one that unregisters a quorum device (it's the un-register one, we're closing the tab on that device, not opening it 🙈).

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <corosync/votequorum.h>

int votequorum_qdevice_unregister(votequorum_handle_t handle, const char
* name);

like… that's it. two args. you got this 💅

---

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so votequorum_qdevice_unregister unregisters a quorum device. bye bye device 👋

and here's the part that's giving main character energy in a scary way — any votes it had will be removed from the cluster. gone. evaporated. not in the group chat anymore 😭

⚠️ NOTE that this could make the cluster inquorate. like, genuinely. the vibe check could fail. be careful bestie 🫶

---

🦋 RETURN VALUE 🦋

this call returns the CS_OK value if successful 💚 — otherwise, an error is returned. that's the whole deal. slay when it works, read the next section when it doesn't ✨

---

💀 ERRORS 💀

here's the full roster of ways this can go wrong, no gatekeeping:

• CS_ERR_TRY_AGAIN — Resource temporarily unavailable
• CS_ERR_INVALID_PARAM — Invalid argument
• CS_ERR_ACCESS — Permission denied
• CS_ERR_LIBRARY — The connection failed
• CS_ERR_INTERRUPT — System call interrupted by a signal
