NAME
dpns_starttrans - start transaction mode
SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/types.h>
#include "dpns_api.h"
int dpns_starttrans (char *server,
char *comment);
DESCRIPTION
dpns_starttrans
starts transaction mode.
The connection to the Name Server is kept open until one of the DB update
operation fails or
dpns_aborttrans
or
dpns_endtrans
is explicitly called.
If all the DB update operations between
dpns_starttrans
and
dpns_endtrans
are successful, a COMMIT is done.
If any DB update operation fails or if an explicit
dpns_aborttrans
is done, a ROLLBACK is done.
The
comment
is logged in the server log.
RETURN VALUE
This routine returns 0 if the operation was successful or -1 if the operation
failed. In the latter case,
serrno
is set appropriately.

comment
exceeds
CA_MAXCOMMENTLEN.
