Reloading value provider data

In case sequencer value provider data is updated, then all multiuser connected ROB-EX Scheduler clients must refresh, to ensure they all have the same sequencer master data loaded.

In previous versions this required a coordinated restart of all connected clients. From ROB-EX Scheduler 6.2.0.183 and forward, a centrally coordinated refresh of all connected clients may be initiated from a single connected client. The reload is triggered from a script on a single client A and will trigger a reload of table data providers on all connected multiuser clients B, C, D, etc.

In order to refresh the values then open and run the script <sch_client_dir>\data\scripts\sequencer\valueResfresh\SequencerValuesRefresh.groovy. See more in the script section on the manual, about how to run scripts.

The script is configurable about what data is refreshed. As an example only load Excel data providers etc.

Watch this on how to perform a value provider refresh.

!Note that if reload fails on one of the clients – then sequencer values will not be refreshed for that particular client. However the config reload on the clients that succeeded cannot be undone, so they now continue with the refreshed values. Any error messages from clients that did not succesfully update is shown on the client running the refresh script. In case of errors then proactive actions should be taken to restart the clients that did not succeed.
