Resynchronizing managed appliances
When a DS1800 digital switch, DSI5100, CPS or CCM appliance or DSR switch changes, it may
not be properly represented in the DSView software system. For example, a target device may be
added, removed or moved. Resynchronizing will update these and other changes made to the
managed appliance within the DSView software system.
Resynchronizing will force a check of the entire DSView software system. The process requires a
large amount of time and network bandwidth and should only be performed when necessary.
To resync a managed appliance:
1. In the Unit Overview window, click the Resync icon or link. The Resync Appliance Wizard
will appear. Click Next.
2. The Select Resync Options window will open.
