Questions about Mobile Support and Integration Server Quiesce Mode
This section answers questions about Mobile Support operations when the Integration Server that hosts Mobile Support enters quiesce mode. For more information about quiesce mode, see webMethods Integration Server Administrator’s Guide.
*What happens to the processing of synchronization requests when the host Integration Server enters quiesce mode?
If Mobile Support has already started processing a synchronization request, Mobile Support attempts to complete the processing of the request within the specified quiesce timeout period before Integration Server starts disabling packages.
While Integration Server is in quiesce mode, new requests are ignored and must be resubmitted after the server exits quiesce mode.
*What happens to mobile sync components when the host Integration Server enters and exits quiesce mode?
All mobile sync components retain their state when the server enters quiesce mode.
While Integration Server is in quiesce mode, all notifications sent to Mobile Support for enabled mobile sync components are lost. The action that Mobile Support takes for these components when the server exits quiesce mode depends on how the components are configured. If a component is configured to store business data in the sync store, Mobile Support refreshes the sync store with the latest data from the backend application. If the component is configured to not store business data in the sync store, Mobile Support does not refresh the corresponding sync store entries; to refresh the sync store with changes made to the backend data while the server was in quiesce mode, you must disable and then enable the mobile sync component.
