After you have created a colony, you need to synchronize the colony
in the database.
- From the Search Colony window, select the colony you want to synchronize
and click the Synchronize button. A Confirm Synchronization
pop-up window is displayed.
- In the Confirm Synchronization pop-up window, Execute Generated
Scripts is selected by default to run Dbverify and entitydeveloper
on the specified colony. If you deselect this option, Dbverify and
entitydeveloper will not be executed. Click OK to
confirm that you want to continue with the synchronization process.
The
synchronize request is submitted to a queue. The process runs in the
background and its status is displayed on the Dashboard screen.
Note: Each
colony synchronization process can take at least 15-30 minutes, depending
on the complexity of the setup.
- To view the status of the synchronization process, choose System
> Dashboard from the menu bar. The Dashboard screen is
displayed, which lists synchronization processes and their statuses
in the Process Status List panel. The status of a synchronization
process can be ACTIVE, SUCCESS, or FAILED.
- To view additional details about a synchronization process, select
the process from the Process Status List panel and select the applicable
tab (View Synchronization Data, View Logs, or View Scripts) for details
about the process. From each tab, you can click a download button
to download the applicable synchronization data, logs, or scripts.
For example, if a process fails, you may want to click the Download
Logs button in the View Logs tab to download the data to understand
why and where the process failed.
For additional information about
the Dashboard screen, refer to Monitoring the status of colony synchronizations.
