<p>
RepStartMaster is not called by most replication applications. It
should only be called by applications implementing their own network
transport layer, explicitly holding replication group elections and
handling replication messages outside of the replication manager
framework.
</p>
<p>
Replication master environments are the only database environments
where replicated databases may be modified. Replication client
environments are read-only as long as they are clients. Replication
client environments may be upgraded to be replication master
environments in the case that the current master fails or there is
no master present. If master leases are in use, this method cannot
be used to appoint a master, and should only be used to configure a
database environment as a master as the result of an election.
</p>
<p>
Before calling this method, the <a href="P_BerkeleyDB_DatabaseEnvironment_RepTransport.htm">RepTransport</a> delegate
must already have been configured to send replication messages.
