The ccmdb refresh command refreshes all
web mode back-end sessions for the specified database. Use this command
after you create or change a model object attribute that affects the
behavior of Rational® Synergy
clients. Doing so makes your changes take effect for all users. After
you run this command, the Rational Synergy
server starts new back-end sessions to process all new incoming user
requests for that database. It also shuts down existing sessions on
that database as they finish processing requests.
Because back-end sessions are reused by different web-mode users,
restarting a Rational Synergy
GUI Web-mode session does not cause model changes to take effect.
Therefore, it is necessary to refresh the database using this command.
Examples of model changes for which you might want to refresh the
database include:
- Changing the conflict_parameters or conflict_exclude_rules that
control which conflicts are shown.
- Changing the parallel_exclude_rules that control
which parallel conflicts are shown.
- Setting the default work area template for all users.
- Changing the range for keyword expansion in source files.
It is not necessary to use this command after adding, removing,
or editing users. Modifying the users attribute causes back-end sessions
to be refreshed automatically.
Group changes require a database refresh so that you do not need
to refresh databases more than necessary. The refresh is not apparent
to users. However, their session response time might be slower during
a refresh.
