Resetting the list of remote servers in Configuration Manager

The Configuration Manager maintains a database of all the remote servers that are connected to it; as new remote servers are attached as children to the parent PrinterOn server, the Configuration Manager updates the database with the new remote server information.

However, should you stop using a remote server, the Configuration Manager is unable to determine that the relationship is severed, so the database is not updated to reflect the change. Over time, the Configuration Manager may continue to maintain relationships unnecessarily.

PrinterOn provides a utility that you can run to clear the database and force remote servers to reregister. Running this utility ensures that the database is up-to-date, with all discontinued remote servers removed.

📘 Instructions

To reset all child servers:

• On the command line, enter the following command:

  CODE

  cd "C:\Program Files (x86)\PrinterOn Corporation\PrinterOn Server Install Manager\Tools\Encrpytor" "%PON_JAVA_HOME%\bin\java.exe" -jar ponconf-clear.jar

  Once the database is cleared, all remote servers will reregister, enabling Configuration Manager to maintain an accurate database.
