NOTE: The option, Data Synchronization, is meant for troubleshooting and available only in the RESTful API
interface. You can use this option with the help of technical support.
NOTE: When the inventory job starts, it tries to get the inventory details from the device. The maximum time
configured for this job is two hours and the job fails if it exceeds the configured time. The inventory job fails before
the maximum time only if there are other major issues like connectivity issue to device or oath failure.

MCM Security Settings Sync task is created only in the following scenarios:
● When a new member chassis is added to the lead chassis with OIDC provider. The OIDC settings are propagated from
the lead chassis to the new member chassis.
● When the chassis is promoted as lead during the Retire Chassis or Promote as Lead workflow.
NOTE:
MCM Security Settings Sync task is not created as part of OIDC provider setting propagation from Lead to
member chassis.
Viewing job details
The Fabric Manager on-boarding is initiated when a Fabric Manager failover occurs in the IOM cluster. When a new Fabric
Manager is discovered, OME-Modular initiates the on-boarding process to reestablish communication with the IOM cluster.
In certain scenarios, multiple switchovers may occur within a short timespan resulting in failure of the tasks that are already
in-progress. Only the last task is completed successfully. Following are the scenarios when multiple switchovers could occur:
● MM reset
● MM upgrade or switchover
● Inter-chassis link online insertion removal
● MM online insertion removal
● IOM main upgrade
● IOM main reset
● Fab-D congestions—Reasons for the congestion include downloading huge files that cause the FAB-D to drop other traffic
The details of the assigned MAC addresses for the respective NIC partitions are displayed on the Jobs Details page, that are
based on the configuration results from iDRAC.
