Replicating changes to a built-in, file-based repository
Changes to built-in, file-based repositories are not automatically replicated to managed nodes in a federated repositories configuration. You need to use the administrative console to replicate the changes you make to a built-in, file-based repository.
About this task
Note: From WebSphere Application Server
Version 8.5.5.3 and later, changes that are made to the built-in,
file-based repositories at the deployment manager are automatically
replicated to the managed nodes in a federated repositories configuration.
The network deployment support in a federated repositories
configuration only updates the in-memory state of the processes that
are running on the managed nodes. Because WebSphere® Application
Server synchronizes the file systems, the network deployment support
does not attempt to update the file systems of the managed nodes.
You must synchronize the node configuration to replicate the changes to the built-in, file-based repository.
Procedure
- In the administrative console, click System Administration > Nodes. to access the nodes panel.
- On the Nodes panel, select all the relevant nodes for which the changes to the built-in, file-based repository need to be made.
- Click Full Resynchronize. The resynchronize operation resolves conflicts among configuration files and can take several minutes to complete.
