DESCRIPTION

The c_dkbuf() call is used to define a disk buffer zone to ensure free disk is actually available. This amount can vary from system to system, and depends on the entries found in $LASTABLES/disk.config. If no entry for a particular hostname exists in the tabel, a default value is used.

RETURN VALUE

c_dkbuf() returns

     E_SUCC (0)  -->  successful completion
     E_FAIL (-1) --> operation failed

SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS:

The c_dkbuf() call is for C only.
