java.lang.Object

  +--ostore.archive.UpdateVerifiableBlocksStage
- All Implemented Interfaces: 
 - EventHandlerIF, ProfilableIF, SingleThreadedEventHandlerIF
 
- public class UpdateVerifiableBlocksStage
- extends Object
- implements SingleThreadedEventHandlerIF, EventHandlerIF, ProfilableIF
   
The UpdateVerifiableBlocksStage generates a checkpoint for a 
 particular version.  The result is a V-GUID or version GUID.
 
 The UpdateVerifiableBlocksStage creates a checkpoint by sending a
 GenerateFragsBlkReq for each
 uniquely modified VerifiableBlock.
 When the checkpointing process is done, all 
 uniquely modified 
 VerifiableBlocks have been
 Erasure encoded into n Fragments and
 a BucketsToDisseminateEvent containing
 the resulting GUID's of all the  uniquely modified 
 VerifiableBlocks has been
 dispatched.
 
 USAGE
  
 To create a checkpoint dispatch a 
 UpdateVerifiableBlocksReq containing the 
 CacheableIdentity (i.e. VHASH) of the top 
 VerifiableBlock, the number of 
 Fragments to Erasure encode, the inverse 
 rate of encoding, and the Erasure code type.
 The local UpdateVerifiableBlocksStage will receive the
 checkpoint request message and return a 
 UpdateVerifiableBlocksResp that
 either includes the resulting V-GUID.
