Description

specifies the function that sets the status for the member. 

poll

Tells the array member whether or not it needs to poll for a PAT file. 

  • yes means that the member should poll for the PAT file. A member should only poll for a PAT file if it is not the master proxy. The master proxy has a local copy of the PAT file, and therefore, does not need to poll for it.

  • no means that the member should not poll for the PAT file. A member should not poll for the PAT file if it is the master proxy.

file

The full pathname of the PAT file. 

pollhost

The host name of the proxy to be polled for the PAT file. This parameter only needs to be specified if the poll parameter is set to yes, meaning that the member is not the master proxy.

pollport

is the port number on the pollhost that should be contacted when polling for the PAT file. This parameter only needs to be specified if the poll parameter is set to yes, meaning that the member is not the master proxy.

pollhdrs

is the full pathname of the file that contains any special headers that must be sent with the HTTP request for the PAT file. This parameter is optional and should only be specified if the poll parameter is set to yes, meaning that the member is not the master proxy.

pollurl

is the URL of the PAT file to be polled for. This parameter only needs to be specified if the poll parameter is set to yes, meaning that the member is not the master proxy.

status

specifies whether the parent array member is on or off. 

  • on means that the member is on.

  • off means that the member is off.
