2.2.1.6 RopGetOwningServers ROP

The RopGetOwningServers ROP ([MS-OXCROPS] section 2.2.3.6) is used to obtain the set of servers that host content for a replicated public folder.

This ROP is useful for a situation in which the client issues a ROP that reads content from a public folder on a specific server (RopGetContentsTable ([MS-OXCROPS] section 2.2.4.14), RopOpenMessage ([MS-OXCROPS] section 2.2.6.1), and RopCreateMessage ([MS-OXCROPS] section 2.2.6.2) are such ROPs), and the server that receives the request does not contain a replica, resulting in a failure of the ROP with ecNoReplicaHere (0x00000468). The client can issue  a RopGetOwningServers ROP request to obtain the set of servers that do contain a replica.

The complete syntax of the ROP request and response buffers for this ROP is specified in [MS-OXCROPS]. This section specifies the syntax and semantics of various fields that are not fully specified in [MS-OXCROPS].
