To synchronize the RealTime database (RTDB), you will need to perform a Rebase (ReSync) procedure on the Hot RealTime server in the system that currently owns the production dataset.
To perform a Rebase (ReSync) on the target (deployment, test, development) zones
-
Delete all template (*.t) files found in %DNADataRoot%\realtime\database\INTEL_NT.
-
On the desktop, double-click the Windows PowerShell for DNA shortcut.
Windows PowerShell for DNA opens.
Note: If you are accessing Windows PowerShell on a Core computer, switch to Windows PowerShell mode, and load the set-silo cmdlet by executing the following command:
cd %DNAInstallRoot%\Shared\scripts
. .\set-silo.ps1 -
Execute the following commands:
set-silo RealTime
text_save
-
Create a backup copy of the %DNADataRoot%\realtime\database\INTEL_NT directory.
-
On the RealTime server, shut down the Common service.
Note: If the server is dual-hosted, shut down the Common service on both servers.
-
On the computer that owns the DistribuSyS Global Tables, copy the .l files from the portable drive into %DNADataRoot%\realtime\database\INTEL_NT, and overwrite the existing contents of the INTEL_NT folder, with the exception of the following files:
-
doas_dataset.l
-
doas_mode.l
-
doas_mode_group.l
-
doas_privilege.l
-
doas_slotrange.l
-
-
Delete the Application Calculation Engine (ACE) assembly files from %DNADataRoot%\RealTime\database\ACE\bin.
-
Copy the ACE source files from the portable drive into %DNADataRoot%\database\ACE\source.
-
Execute the following commands from the open Windows Powershell session:
loadblankdb
text_load
savedata
-
From the Network Management Console (NMC), start the RealTime service.
-
If a secondary RealTime service exists, when the primary RealTime service goes HOT, start the secondary RealTime service from NMC.
-
If RealTime services exist on other systems, shut down RealTime, and execute the following commands on those systems:
loadblankdb
savedata
-
Restart the RealTime service to allow synchronization to populate the RealTime database (RTDB).
