The IExternalParticipant type exposes the following members.

ToggleProperties

Type NameDescription
Public propertyClassDescription
The ClassDescription object containing the property metadata for the EngineObject.
(Inherited from IEngineObject.)
Public propertyEnableDefensibleDisposal
Specifies if documents replicated to or from the external repository should be prevented from being deleted in that repository.
Public propertyExternalRepository
An ExternalRepository object that represents one of the following items:
  • The external repository in which this external identity applies.
  • The external repository in which this mapped external class is defined.
  • The external repository in which this mapped external property is defined.
  • The external repository participating in replication through its containing replication group.

An external repository is a repository that is external to the Content Engine server, such as an IBM® Content Manager OnDemand (CMOD) repository or an IBM® FileNet® Image Services repository.

Public propertyId
A representation of the Globally Unique Identifier (GUID), a unique 128-bit number, that is assigned to this Content Engine object when the object is created. When converted to a string, the Id property is typically depicted as 32 hexadecimal characters enclosed by brackets in the following format: {xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx}. For example, {3F2504E0-4F89-11D3-9A0C-0305E82C3301}.

For IUser and IGroup classes, the Id property takes the value of the Security Identifier (SID) rather than the 128-bit GUID. The string representation of the SID is in this example format: S-1-5-21-1559522492-2815155736-3711640725-55269. When Active Directory is used as the directory service for IBM FileNet P8, IUser.Id and IGroup.Id always return the current SID for the principal, even if this user or group has only historical SIDs populating the Active Directory server.

For a given property representation, the Id property has the following characteristics:

  • PropertyDescription.Id is equal to PropertyTemplate.Id, which is equal to PropertyDefinition.PrimaryId.
  • PropertyDefinition.Id is not equal to PropertyDefinition.PrimaryId.
  • PropertyDefinition.Id is not equal to PropertyDescription.Id.

For a newly created document object, you can override the Id property of its associated VersionSeries object before you save or check in the document for the first time.

(Inherited from IReplicationParticipant.)
Public propertyPartnerObjectStore
The object store that is partnered with the external repository associated with this external participant. This object store controls all the replication interactions of the external repository with which it is partnered.
Public propertyProperties
The IProperties collection of properties for the EngineObject.
(Inherited from IEngineObject.)
Public propertyReplicationMode
A ReplicationMode constant that specifies the replication mode of the object store or external repository participant. The replication mode determines how objects are replicated in a replication group.

This constant can have one of the following values:

  • MASTER: Master mode. In this mode, replicated objects in the repository can be modified and any modifications are then propagated to other participants in the replication group.
  • SLAVE: Slave mode. In this mode, replicated objects in the repository are read-only, and can change only as a result of the propagation of modifications from another repository operating in master mode in the replication group.
