Synchronize Caches in Bridge

The state transfer is a process in which you can synchronize the state of the source cache with the target cache via the Bridge (WAN Replication). The main benefit of this process is to make sure the target cache in this Bridge is resynchronized with the source cache.

You can execute state transfer any time after the Bridge starts to synchronize the selected caches either by using the NCache Management Center or Command Line Tools, like PowerShell, etc.

Important

This option is provided for the caches connected to the Bridge.

Using the NCache Management Center

  • Launch the NCache Management Center by browsing to http://localhost:8251 or <server-ip>:8251 on Windows and Linux.

  • In the left navigation bar, click on Bridges. It will open up a list of pre-existing Bridges. From the list, select the Bridge Name and go to View Details.

Important

Please ensure your bridge is running.

Using Command Line Tools

The Start Bridge State Transfer tool enables you to initiate a state transfer between the source and target caches. The following command initiates a State Transfer from source cache demoCache.WestCoast to target cache demoCache.EastCoast for Bridge demoBridge running on 20.200.20.39.

Start-BridgeStateTransfer -Name demoBridge -Server 20.200.20.39 -SourceCache demoCache.WestCoast -TargetCache demoCache.EastCoast
