Troubleshooting BPM Node has a Status of Out of Sync

In TIBCO Administrator, the BPM node is displayed as "Out of Sync". This indicates that the BPM node is not running the latest configuration. This means inconsistent results may be achieved when performing an upgrade or when reprovisioning the node, for example.

Sometimes, user applications fail to successfully undeploy. If this happens, older features or applications are displayed as "Marked for Uninstall" and they cannot be removed, during an upgrade or when reprovisioning the BPM Node, for example. This results in the BPM node being "Out of Sync".

Procedure

  1. In TIBCO ActiveMatrix Administrator, navigate to Infrastructure > Nodes > Features.
  2. For a given user application feature with status 'Marked for Uninstall', locate the earliest version and click Add. Ensure that you pick the correct earliest version to add.
  3. Click Save, and then click Apply. The BPMNode will be reprovisioned and the status changes from 'Out of Sync' to 'In Sync'.
  4. If there are other user application features with status 'Marked for Uninstall', repeat the steps 2 and 3. Ensure that you add the feature with the earliest timestamp.
    Note: The same steps can be applied to reprovision the BPM node if a hotfix upgrade fails when reprovisioning the BPM node.
