Check the following log files on the nethost and the subhost that had a problem.- /cas/log/er.log- /cas/db/log/online.logFailed synchronization after installationUnder normal conditions, all hosts should be synchronized after installation. If chkdbsync reportsindicating that all hosts do not have identical data, perform the following steps:1. Look at the log files:- /cas/log/hostconfig.log.- /cas/db/log/online.log.Check if the host had a network disconnect or the host/database was down in the middleof the synchronization.2. Look for any collisions in the ATS/RIS directories /ppbackup/ats and /ppbackup/ris.Collisions may indicate that the initial synchronization was not successful.3. Run ercmd.sh --recover_allhosts using nethost as master.If this does not synchronize the data either, contact Customer Support.Incomplete synchronization due to a network outage during hostconfigIf a network outage occurred while hostconfig was running and the synchronization did notcomplete, run the command /cas/er/bin/ercmd.sh --removER on all subhosts that did notcomplete synchronization and then repeat the hostconfig.
