Hi André,

Since you are referring to showing properties of elements in the surveyor, I assume you have created a 'custom' property with the name 'Description'.

If you fill in a specific value for that property on all of your elements in the Redundancy Group, the virtual elements will not take over that property value. They have their own value, independent from where they link to. So Initially they should be empty. The values are being stored in the xml file on the agent in C:\Skyline DataMiner\Redundancy\yourRedundancyGroupName\Element_x_y.xml. That also means that after switching, the property values will not change on the virtual elements.

This is the default behavior I experienced and I validated this behavior on DataMiner version 10.4.8.
In case you do want to update properties, you can consider changing the redundancy mode and let DataMiner 'intervene in the switching' (like mentioned in the DataMiner Cube UI when going into edit mode of your Redundancy Group). With this, you can run scripts upon switching where you can for example update the properties to the correct values. I have not experimented with that yet, maybe other Dojo members have? We can definitely take a closer look at that if you would be interested to take that route.

Hope this helps.
