Resynchronizing metadata by using commands

To resynchronize metadata for a specific catalog by using commands, complete these steps:

1. Run the following command:

oc edit cj catalog-api-lineage-sync-cronjob

2. Find a section:

             - name: dbs_to_sync`
              `value: '[]'

3. Specify what catalogs to resync.
   • To resync all catalogs keep the value empty.

            - name: dbs_to_sync`
             `value: '[]'
   

   • Enter the ID of one catalog in brackets to resync only one catalog. For example:

            - name: dbs_to_sync`
             `value: '[bbf325c5-3452-440b-81c1-8b68eaafa5e5]'
   

   • Enter IDs of many catalogs in brackets separated by a comma to resync many catalogs. For example:

            - name: dbs_to_sync`
             `value: '[bbf325c5-3452-440b-81c1-8b68eaafa5e5, gga523d4-4658-553a-22c4-9f86efdfb6e6]'
   

4. Run the following command to finish resyncing:

oc create job -n ${PROJECT_CPD_INST_OPERANDS} --from=cronjob/catalog-api-lineage-sync-cronjob lineage-job
