Förfarande och anordning vid ett distribuerat system

摘要

A method and arrangement in a distributed system for synchronizing configuring data at a receiving unit with corresponding source configuring data. The configuring data and the source configuring data are arranged in one or preferably several groups of data. Reference checksums are calculated ( 201 ) for each data group. The receiving unit determines ( 202 ) whether the content in each data group of the configuring data at the receiving unit matches the corresponding reference checksum. The receiving unit requests ( 203 ) the source unit to transfer copies to the receiving unit of the source configuring data in those data groups for which a mismatch is detected. The requested data is downloaded ( 204 ) from the source unit to the receiving unit.
