<p>
A Berkeley DB Replication Manager application can now designate one or more
remote sites (called its "peers") to receive client-to-client requests.
</p>
<p>
In previous releases, there could be only one peer at a time. If you
called the <code class="literal">DB_ENV-&gt;repmgr_add_remote_site</code> method specifying
site "A" as a peer and you made another call specifying site "B" as a peer,
site "B" would become the only peer, and site "A" would no longer be a peer.
</p>
<p>
Starting with Berkeley DB 11gR2, the same sequence of calls results in both
site "A" and site "B" being possible peers. Replication Manager may select
any of a site's possible peers to use for client-to-client requests. If the
first peer that the Replication Manager selects cannot be used (for example, it is
unavailable or it is the current master), Replication Manager attempts to
use a different peer if there is more than one peer.
</p>
<p>
To get the pre-11gR2 peer behavior in this example, you must
make an additional call to the <code class="literal">DB_ENV-&gt;repmgr_add_remote_site</code> method,
specifying site "A" and a flag value that excludes the <code class="literal">DB_REPMGR_PEER</code>
bit value to remove site "A" as a possible peer.
