15 The votequorum_qdevice_register is used to register a new quorum
16 device. A quorum device is an external way of adding votes to a small
17 cluster. The quorum device is, in effect, a pseudo node in the cluster
18 that provide votes based on some external device, usually a shared disk
19 partition or perhaps a network router.
20 This call creates the device but does not mark it active. votequo‐
21 rum_qdevice_poll must be called for the votes to be included in the
22 quorum calculation.
23 name is string containing an informative name for the quorum device. It
24 is simply stored by votequorum and used in the display of corosync-quo‐
25 rumtool, it can be a maximum of 254 characters.
26 The number of votes contributed by the quorum device is already known
27 to votequorum, it is set in cmap quorum.device.votes and not by the
28 device.
29 Note that it is the responsibility of the quorum device subsystem (not
30 provided as part of votequorum) to keep all nodes informed of the quo‐
31 rum device status.
