Severity: 3-Major
This device-group 'datasync-global-dg' is created and updated automatically, and should not be modified or deleted manually.
The system may go offline, and errors may appear 'Can't associate Datasync Update Files'.
The 'datasync-global-dg' data-group gets deleted manually.
After accidentally deleting the datasync-global-dg device-group, the easiest way to resolve this issue is to perform the following procedure: 1. Run the following command: tmsh save sys config. 2. Run the following command: tmsh load sys config. 3. Wait a few seconds. If system is Offline, then wait about 3 minutes until the system is ACTIVE. 4. Run the following command: tmsh save sys config (for a second time). 5. Perform a force sync of datasync-global-dg: From the GUI of the same device (the device that was previously offline), select 'Sync Device to Group', making sure to check 'Overwrite Configuration', and click 'Sync'. 6. Wait until the devices are both ACTIVE and 'In Sync'.
The device-group datasync-global-dg is now hidden from the Device Group List page, but still should appear in the 'Device Management Overview' page to allow controlling the sync.
