Views initially built on a DMA being removed from a Cluster.

We’re removing some DMAs from an existing cluster and will be deleting or migrating all elements and services from these DMAs. I have some concerns about some views that were initially built from these DMAs and that are still in use by elements in the cluster. I know that all views are found in the Views.xml file but do these remain intact in the surveyor even if the original DMA is removed from the cluster?

Hi Joe,

The Views.xml file is the same on all the DMAs in cluster. Every time that there is an update on the view structure from a specific DMA, this update is synchronized across all the DMAs in the cluster. Based on this, removing a DMA should not affect the view structure.

More information about files synchronized across the cluster can be found here.

It could be the case that, due to sync issues, this file (Views.xml) is not synchronized across the cluster. You could force this synchronization before the DMA removal: Force synchronization of a file within a DMS.

Furthermore, if you suspect that there is a sync issue in this file and you would like to compare the views of two agents, you could use the client test tool.

Hope it helps.

Thanks Miguel. I was hoping this was the case. Just for good measure I’ll go ahead and sync this file across the cluster before removal. I appreciate your help.
