syncNode command
The syncNode command forces a configuration synchronization to occur between the node and the deployment manager for the cell in which the node is configured.
The node agent server runs a configuration synchronization service that keeps the node configuration synchronized with the master cell configuration. If the node agent is unable to run because of a problem in the node configuration, use the syncNode command to perform a synchronization when the deployment manager is not running in order to force the node configuration back in sync with the cell configuration.
Syntax
The command syntax is as follows
where the <deploymgr host> argument is required.syncNode <deploymgr host> <deploymgr port> [options]
Parameters
The following options are available for the syncNode command:
- -stopservers
- Tells the syncNode command to stop all servers on the node, including the node agent, before performing configuration synchronization with the cell.
- -restart
- Tells the syncNode command to launch the node agent process after configuration synchronization completes.
- -nowait
- Tells the syncNode command not to wait for successful initialization of the launched node agent process.
- -quiet
- Suppresses the progress information that the syncNode command prints in normal mode.
- -logfile <fileName>
- Specifies the location of the log file to which information gets written.
- -profileName
- Defines the profile of the Application Server process in a multi-profile installation. The -profileName option is not required for running in a single profile environment. The default for this option is the default profile.
- -replacelog
- Replaces the log file instead of appending to the current log.
- -trace
- Generates trace information into a file for debugging purposes.
- -timeout <seconds>
- Specifies the waiting time before node agent initialization times out and returns an error.
- -statusport <portnumber>
- Specifies that an administrator can set the port number for node agent status callback.
- -username <name>
- Specifies the user name for authentication if security is enabled. Acts the same as the -user option.
- -user <name>
- Specifies the user name for authentication if security is enabled. Acts the same as the -username option.
- -password <password>
- Specifies the password for authentication if security is enabled.
- -conntype <type>
- Specifies the Java Management Extensions (JMX) connector type to use for connecting to the deployment manager. Valid types are Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP) or RMI.
- -help
- Prints a usage statement.
- -?
- Prints a usage statement.
Usage scenario
The following examples demonstrate correct syntax:
syncNode testhost 8879 syncNode deploymgr 8879 -trace (produces the syncNode.log file) syncNode host25 4444 -stopservers -restart (assumes that the deployment manager JMX port is 4444)
