Detailed Description

Server selector for associating objects in a database with specific servers.

Configuration information stored in the configuration backends can be associated with selected servers, all servers or no particular server. For example: a particular subnet definition in the database may be associated with one server or can be shared by multiple servers. In the latter case, a subnet may be associated with a subset of servers or all servers. An administrator may also add the configuration data into the database and do not associate this data with any particular server.

When fetching the configuration data from a database or when storing data in the database there is a need to specify which servers this data is associated with. The ServerSelector class represents such associations.

It includes three modes of selection: UNASSIGNED, ALL and SUBSET and several factory functions making associations described above.

The ServerSelector class should be used in objects derived from BaseConfigBackendPool and in objects derived from BaseConfigBackend to indicate which servers the specific calls exposed by these objects refer to.

Todo:
Add server selector for selecting only those configuration elements that are associated with all servers (and not with any particular server tags). Translating this to SQL queries it would probably be an empty or non-existing server tag.
