rdf command failed to set mode to sync

Command executed -

symrdf -g grp set mode sync

Got this error -

An RDF Set 'Synchronous Mode' operation execution is in
progress for device group 'group'. Please wait...


The device does not have a valid RDF Consistency state for this operation

We changed to Async mode prior after we had performance issues.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,
Kaizen10

    Kaizen10 unfortunatly the message itself isn't that usefull .. Usually logfiles give better details and sometimes also the solution itself ;-)

    In this specific situation I think that you did enable async mode but also enabled RDF consistency (symrdf enable) since it's needed to have a consistent copy on your R2 devices.

    If you want to switch back to sync you need to disable consistency at first and next turn from async to sync ...

    symrdf -g yourdg disable
    symrdf -g yourdg set mode sync

    Cheers !!

    Stefano,

    You got it. I need to disable the consistency first.

    I am new to the forum. How to award the points?
