3.2.4.9. ndb_mgm_set_connectstring()

Description.  This function is used to set the connectstring for a management server connection to a node.

Signature.  

int ndb_mgm_set_connectstring
    (
      NdbMgmHandle handle,
      const char*  connectstring
    )

Parameters.  ndb_mgm_set_connectstring() takes two parameters:

  • A management server handle.

  • A connectstring whose format is shown here: 

    connectstring :=
    [nodeid-specification,]host-specification[,host-specification]

    (It is possible to establish connections with multiple management servers using a single connectstring.) 

    nodeid-specification := nodeid=id
host-specification := host[:port]

    id, port, and host are defined as follows:

    • id: An integer greater than 0 identifying a node in config.ini.

    • port: An integer referring to a standard Unix port.

    • host: A string containing a valid network host address.

Section 3.2.4.1, “ndb_mgm_get_connectstring()” also uses this format for connectstrings.

Return value.  This function returns -1 in the event of failure.
