In a DMS cluster with 5 DMAs, is there a mechanism to synchronize configuration files (for example, DataMiner.xml) across all agents? If so, how should this be done?

Hi daniel,

If you’ve already tried Ive’s suggestion and you are still experiencing issues with some files (DataMiner.xml is not a good example as Bert said), you can try the alternative approach described here:

Hyperlinks.xml sync across DMS - DataMiner Dojo

I hope this helps!
Kind regards,

Hi Daniel,

Have you tried the Synchronize File tool, available in System Center?

Just a small comment that you cannot just sync "any" file on a DMA… Only the files and the content that DataMiner does synchronize, will be synchronized. E.g. the dataminer.xml file contains the ID of a DataMiner Agent, this is unique for each agent in the cluster, so this will never be synchronized in the cluster.
