Datasync seems not working properly in Portal 8.1 SP1 under Solaris

Question

Hi all,
We observe some inconsistence behavior for datasync in Development mode
for Solaris and Windows.
For Windows: datasync will automatically propagate files to managed
server node.
For Solaris: explicit datasync trigger is needed in datasync
webapplication to propagate the data.
Can you help in this issue. Thanks.

Hi,
If you open the p13n_ejb.jar you will find a configurable datasync-default.properties
file that sets how this operates. In production (EAR) mode, the datasync operates
out of the database, and boots from the EAR (not overwriting the db). However
in development mode, it runs from the filesystem. Even cooler - there is a command
line utility to query the datasync repository.
ex:
java -classpath C:\bea\weblogic81\p13n\lib\p13n_ejb.jar;C:\bea\weblogic81\p13n\lib\p13n_system.jar;C:\bea\weblogic81\server\lib\weblogic.jar
com.bea.p13n.management.data.DataRepositoryQuery -app <EnterpriseAppName>@<Server>:<Port>
-username user -password password

Heh there,
I've also run into this problem - on Solaris as well, though I'm not
sure
it's particularly a Solaris issue as I don't have a Workshop instance
communicating with that server, rather I just deploy a prebuilt ear to
it.
Never-the-less, it doesn't tend to see new data/ entries unless I explicitly
trigger a sync.
BTW - for anyone else who may not be familiar with this app, there is
a
datasync admin console at:

Finding this thing saved many hours of frustration...
cheers,
