How to Re-initialize Users in Riva 2.4.39 or Earlier

This section applies to Riva On-Premise 2.4.39 or earlier.

For Riva 2.4.47 or higher, see Re-initialize users in Riva 2.4.47 or higher.
For Riva 2.4.40 through 2.4.46 see Re-initialize users in Riva 2.4.40 through 2.4.46.

Re-initialization options are used by Riva administrators to re-initialize data sync for selected users. These options are most commonly used to resolve sync issues or to apply a new filter added to a sync policy against previously synced data.

To start setting the re-initialization options:

Start the Riva Manager application. On the menu bar, select Policies. Edit the desired sync policy.
Select the Sync Start Time tab.
Select the user or users to be re-initialized, or check the Select All check box.
In the Type field, set the type of re-initialization that you want to apply; for example, select Resync.
In the Modules field, select a specific module to re-initialize, or select All to re-initialize data from all modules.
Save the sync policy.

The Riva service detects the change to the policy and autorestarts the polling to apply the re-initialization to the target syncing users.
