admin:host-get-id( $config as element(configuration), $host-name as xs:string ) as xs:unsignedLong
This function return the ID for the specified host from
the configuration.
The difference between this function and xdmp:host()
is that the ID from
this function can come from a host that has not yet been saved (that is,
from a host that has been created in the same query with the Admin library
but has not yet been saved to the cluster configuration files). This ID
enables you to completely configure a newly created host without the
need to first save the configuration.
