Is it just me or does zeoup.py write a transaction to the end of Data.fs
containing a MinPO object?
"""Make sure a ZEO server is running.
usage: zeoup.py [options]
The test will connect to a ZEO server, load the root object, and attempt to
update the zeoup counter in the root. It will report success if it updates
the counter or if it gets a ConflictError. A ConflictError is considered a
success, because the client was able to start a transaction.
Options:
-p port -- port to connect to
-h host -- host to connect to (default is current host)
-S storage -- storage name (default '1')
-U path -- Unix-domain socket to connect to
--nowrite -- Do not update the zeoup counter.
-1 -- Connect to a ZEO 1.0 server.
You must specify either -p and -h or -U.
"""
IOW, zeoup's _purpose_ is to try to commit a transaction. I'm not
sure why the --nowrite option exists -- it still tries to commit a
transaction then, but opens the connection in read-only mode, so can't
succeed.
