SAP Note 710663 - AS Java Bootstrap Synchronization

Component : Enterprise Runtime, Core J2EE Framework -

Solution : https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/710663 (SAP Service marketplace login required)

Summary :
This SAP Note addresses issues related to file system and database synchronization in AS Java environments. Users facing inconsistencies after patch deployment or upgrades can control synchronization through the bootstrap.properties file. The file controls synchronization via the 'element.resynch' property with three settings: 'detect', 'force', and 'skip'. 'Detect' maintains system optimization by comparing precomputed hash values, 'force' re-evaluates all hashes ensuring immediate reflection of changes, and 'skip' halts all bootstrap activities, useful for debugging. For version 7.1, other properties should be removed from the file. Changes require an AS Java restart.

Key words :
<j2ee-home>\cluster\bootstrap\bootstrap, detect - precomputed hash values, database content hash, local precomputed values, complete bin folder, mode runs slower, precomputed file hash, newer jar version, force - totally ignores, functional property - element
