The Charts at Remote Nodes table provides the latest available
information about charts installed at remote nodes. The same chart time,
date and update information is provided for charts on remote nodes as is
provided for the local node.
The Status column provides an indication of whether the charts on the
remote node match the locally installed charts. If the charts do match, then
Matches Local Charts is displayed in green. Otherwise, a status Does
Not Match Local Charts is displayed in yellow. The Status column also
provides current progress information once a copy operation is started. The
buttons in the Action column enables you to start or cancel chart copy
operations for individual nodes.
The Copy Local Charts to All Nodes button allows you to copy the local
charts to all nodes, while the Cancel All Copy Operations cancels all
active copy operations.
1. To start a copy operation to specific nodes on the system (i.e. the
nodes displaying Does Not Match Local Charts) click on the
Copy Local Charts to this Node button in the Action column.
2. Or, to copy the selected chart database to all remote nodes on the
system, click the Copy Local Charts to All Nodes button.
3. When the copy process is started the Status column provides
current information about the progress of each active copy
operation. If a copy operation fails for any reason (e.g. remote
nodes becomes unavailable), the reason for the copy error is
displayed in the Status column. Once the copy operation is started,
the Action column button will change to Cancel Copy Operation.
4. To cancel the copy operation click the Cancel Copy Operation
button while the copy is in progress, the copy will be cancelled and
any partially set of copied files will be removed from the remote
node.
Once the copy operation is complete, the Status column will display a
Copy Complete, Reboot Node message in yellow. This indicates that the
newly copied charts can be activated by restarting the remote node. After
the node is restarted, the chart information displayed for that node will be
automatically refreshed to match the newly activated charts.
When a C-Map database is copied to a remote node, any existing licenses
installed on that node are automatically applied to the replacement charts
when they are activated on reboot.
If a problem is encountered during the activation of copied charts on
restart, a Charts Activation Error warning is raised, with a description on
the reason for the failed activation.
