Solved: How do you reinitialize location 2710 database??

rcullum · ‎02-05-2010

I have just upgraded my location appliance and WCS. However, I cannot get the Network Design elements to re-synchronize. Keep getting message "A similar element was found in the Server. Please synchronize again to remove any disparities.". Controllers do synchronize OK. Tried reboots; deleting Network Design element (which didn't delete it); Deleteing/adding 2710 to WCS. So decided I want to reinit the 2710 database instead. I dont need the historical stats. The option 'Clear Configuration' implies this will reset Location appliance to factoiry defaults which is not what I want todo. So does anyone know a procedure to just reinit the 2710 database??

1.SSH to your location appliance with the root user.

2.Stop the location daemons: /etc/init.d/locserverd stop

3.Then clear the database by removing the following file: : rm -rf /opt/locserver/db/linux/server-eng.db

4. Start the location daemons: /etc/init.d/locserverd start

And you are done!
