Resync Device Configurations
While viewing the Devices in either the Table or Diagram view, you are alerted (by the out-of-sync icon in the
State
column) that you have devices that are out-of-sync. This indicates that the running configuration for a specific device is not "in sync" with the saved device configuration, and should be brought back into sync to preserve the running configuration when the application is rebooted.
There are three ways to get the device back "into sync":
- Using theResyncbutton provided in theGeneral tabof Device Properties
- Using theSchedule Managerto complete a config pull
- Using the option in theDevices Viewright-click menu
Make sure you refresh the Devices view after each resync is completed
. Using the Resync button,
- To bring a single device, ormultiple devicesconfiguration back into "sync", display the devices using the Table layout.
- From the Navigation tree, display the listing of devices to determine if you have any devices out of sync, as indicated by the icon
in the Statecolumn. - Next, select that single device, or select multiple devices from the list, then click thePropertiesicon on the menu bar.
This Resync button is only available if there are any "out-of-sync devices" in the Device list. - With the Device Properties displayed, go to theGeneraltab. With the device selected, click theResyncbutton. TheSchedule Push Jobwindow opens, where you complete the information needed for the push job.

- See Schedule Push Job for details on how to complete this action, including how to work with each tab.
- After the application completes a Config pull (to bring the device configuration into sync)select theRefreshicon
to refresh your Devices view.
The device is no longer in the "out-of-sync" state in the Devices View. This indicates that the device's running configuration is now identical to the start-up configuration .
