Description

   To synchronize each of the node-specific, in-memory caches of
   channel counters with the cluster-wide database, issue a PMDF
   COUNTERS/SYNCHRONIZE command. The command will not return control
   back to you until all the caches have been synchronized. The
   PMDF COUNTERS/SYNCHRONIZE command signals each PMDF counters
   synchronization process in the cluster-there should be one
   such process on each node running PMDF. Note that on each node,
   the synchronization can only be performed if the PMDF counters
   synchronization process is running on that node.

   Assuming that the PMDF counters synchronization process is
   running on each node, then for each node the node-specific, in-
   memory cache will be created, if it does not already exist. If
   the cluster-wide, on-disk database does not exist, it will be
   created. The in-memory cache values will be used to update the
   on-disk database, and then the on-disk database values for stored
   messages, recipients, and volume will be set by scanning the PMDF
   queue cache database.
