rpc_clear_server_binding(3ncs)			rpc_clear_server_binding(3ncs)

Name
       rpc_clear_server_binding	 -  unset  the	binding	 of an RPC handle to a
       server (client only)

Syntax
       #include <idl/c/rpc.h>

       void rpc_$clear_server_binding(handle, status)
       handle_t handle;
       status_$t *status;

Arguments
       handle		   The RPC handle whose binding is being cleared.

       status		   The completion status.  If  the  completion	status
			   returned  in is equal to status_$ok , then the rou‐
			   tine that supplied it was successful.

Description
       The routine removes the association between an RPC handle and a partic‐
       ular  server  (that  is, a particular port number), but does not remove
       the associations with an object and with a host	(that  is,  a  network
       address).  This call replaces a fully bound handle with a bound-to-host
       handle.	A bound-to-host handle identifies an object located on a  par‐
       ticular	host  but does not identify a server exporting an interface to
       the object.

       If a client uses a bound-to-host handle	to  make  a  remote  procedure
       call,  the  call	 is sent to the Local Location Broker (LLB) forwarding
       port at the host identified by the handle.  If the call's interface and
       the object identified by the handle are both registered with the host's
       LLB, the LLB forwards the request to the registering server.  When  the
       client  RPC runtime library receives a response, it binds the handle to
       the server.  Subsequent remote procedure calls that use this handle are
       then sent directly to the bound server's port.

       The  routine  is	 useful	 for client error recovery when a server dies.
       The port that a server uses when it restarts  is	 not  necessarily  the
       same  port  that	 it  used  previously; therefore, the binding that the
       client was using may not be correct.  This routine enables  the	client
       to unbind from the dead server while retaining the binding to the host.
       When the client sends a request, the binding is	automatically  set  to
       the server's new port.

Diagnostics
       This section lists status codes for errors returned by this routine in

       rpc_$not_in_call	   An internal error.

       rpc_$proto_error	   An internal protocol error.
