vtl haAdmin synchronize ClientCommand

NAME

 vtl haAdmin -synchronize  - synchronize contents among HA group members.

SYNOPSIS

vtl haAdmin -synchronize [-enable] | [-disable] -group <groupNumber> -password <password>

DESCRIPTION

Synchronizes the contents of members of the HA group that have network replication enabled. The contents of each partition will be examine with those of all others to ensure that all objects are found on all partitions. SHA-1 digests (fingerprints) of the objects are used to identify two objects as being the same or different.

Synchronization is not usually needed since objects that are created on the HA slot are automatically replicated to all members that are available and have network replication allowed. Synchronization is required when one member was unavailable for a time when keys or other objects were created in the HA group, or when a key or object was added directly to a member of an HA group instead of to the group itself (i.e. if a key is generated on slot 1, which is partition 1, instead of slot 3 which is the HA group.)

Use the command with the "-enable" option to enable synchronization.

Use the command with neither "-enable" nor "-disable" to trigger synchronization (if it is enabled).

Use the command with the "-disable" option to disable synchronization.

OPTIONS

-enable [optional] Enables the synchronization.

-disable [optional] Disables the synchronization.

-group <groupNum>  [mandatory] The group number of the HA group's to synchronize. Group numbers can be found using the vtl haAdmin -listGroups command.

-password <password>  [mandatory] The text password for the partitions/group members. It is prompted if not supplied at the command line. Not needed for the -enable and -disable options.

SAMPLE OUTPUT

vtl haAdmin -synchronize -group 165010001
Please enter the password for the member partitions:
> *******
No synchronization performed/needed.vtl haAdmin -synchronize -group 165010001
Synchronization completed.
