Chapter 6 MemberDef This chapter explains the MemberDef and SpaceMemberDef operations. The MemberDef functions create and set the attributes of a MemberDef object that controls how a space member connects to a metaspace and communicates with other space members. The SpaceMemberDef functions specify additional attributes of space membership, such as whether a member joins a space as a seeder or a leech, and, if shared-nothing persistence is implemented, the directory path in which to shore persisted data.
