<p>
The <code class="methodname">DbEnv::rep_set_priority()</code> method specifies the database
environment's priority in replication group elections. A special
value of 0 indicates that this environment cannot be a replication
group master.

The
<a class="xref" href="repmgrset_ack_policy.html" title="DbEnv::repmgr_set_ack_policy()">
<span>DbEnv::repmgr_set_ack_policy()</span>
</a>
method describes <span class="emphasis"><em>electable peers</em></span>, which
are replication sites with a non-zero priority. For some
acknowledgement policies, Replication Manager's computation of
the durability result for each new update transaction is
sensitive to whether each site in the group is a peer.
Therefore, if you change a site's priority from a non-zero
value to <code class="literal">0</code>, or from <code class="literal">0</code> to
a non-zero value, this can invalidate the durability result of
previously committed transactions.
</p>
</div>
<p>
The database environment's replication subsystem may also be
configured using the environment's <a href="../../programmer_reference/env_db_config.html#env_db_config.DB_CONFIG" class="olink">DB_CONFIG</a> file. The syntax
of the entry in that file is a single line with the string
"rep_set_priority", one or more whitespace characters, and the
priority of this site. For example, "rep_set_priority 1" sets the
priority of this site to 1. Because the <a href="../../programmer_reference/env_db_config.html#env_db_config.DB_CONFIG" class="olink">DB_CONFIG</a> file is read
when the database environment is opened, it will silently overrule
configuration done before that time.
</p>
<p>
Note that if the application never explicitly sets a priority, then
a default value of 100 is used. In preferred master mode, priority
values for each site are automatically set and any attempt to change
them results in an error.
</p>
<p>
The <code class="methodname">DbEnv::rep_set_priority()</code> method configures a database
environment, not only operations performed using the specified
<a class="link" href="env.html" title="Chapter 5. The DbEnv Handle">DbEnv</a> handle.
</p>
<p>
The <code class="methodname">DbEnv::rep_set_priority()</code> method may be called at any time
during the life of the application.
</p>
<p>
The <code class="methodname">DbEnv::rep_set_priority()</code> <span>

method either returns a non-zero error value or throws an
exception that encapsulates a non-zero error value on
failure, and returns 0 on success.
