I updated just the admin tool to patch 24 at first. It worked fine. Later on did the server.

Did you update only your admin tool to that patch or did it require a server upgrade to 7.1 P4 as well? It used to be a nice to have feature when it worked for the most part so would be good to have it working again..

Might try it again, if you can use that patch to Admin/Server. Rick On Mon, Aug 25, 2008 at 12:19 PM, Joe DeSouza <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: ** Gary, It doesn't always work.. What Remedy support reccommends when these crashes occur is to redo the sync database forms by deleting them.. There are 3 of these forms and they all begin with object_**** After deleting these forms, rebuild them and then see if it helps.. The primary cause why the sync operation fails is if it is run against a significantly large database - size in terms of structure - thousands of forms, and active links and filters etc.. I was never able to run it on ITSM 7 databases - it either failed by crashing the admin tool or sometimes even though it looks like it has completed with the end message that the search completed, it is actually incomplete. Many of the forms do not have anything in the sync database tables thus showing blank space in the Related Workflow tab.. Over the past year or so I have actually given up on ever expecting this feature to work on large databases such as the ITSM database.. Hope this helps..

Thanks Roger, that gets the sync to stop. There was a trick out there that some people used that would fix the issue where it would crash the admin tools. I believe it involved deleting some forms. Does anyone remember the issue, because I'm still crashing my admin tool every time I try to sync.

Whenever you sync your search dataset, and it causes your admin tool to crash, then you open your admin tool, it still says it's searching, and never finishes, what is it you do in order to rectify the situation and get a new search database synced? I have seen it done before, but forgot how.
