Refresh Farm Metadata

Use the Refresh Farm Metadata form to refresh the metadata cache across all servers in a server farm.

  • To clear the IDO metadata cache, click Refresh farm IDO Metadata.

    Optionally, to unload and restart the app domain and reload the shared custom assemblies, select the Refresh shared Extension Class Assemblies option.

  • To clear the BOD metadata cache, click Refresh farm BOD Metadata.
Note: Depending on the number of servers in the farm and the amount of metadata to be processed, these processes can take a considerable amount of time. Make sure you receive a "success" message before you proceed. When refreshing BOD metadata, allow an extra 3 minutes before moving ahead.
