Description

   To synchronize each of the node-specific, in-memory cache of
   channel counters with the cluster-wide database, issue a COUNTERS
   SYNCHRONIZE command. The command will not return control back
   to you until either all the caches have been synchronized
   or a "timeout" period has elapsed. Should the timeout period
   elapse, then control will be returned to you. However, the
   synchronization process will continue in the background. Use
   the /TIMEOUT qualifier to adjust the timeout period which has a
   default value of 120 seconds.

   Note that SYSLCK privilege is required to use this command.

   Note that the COUNTERS SYNCHRONIZE command signals each PMDF
   counters synchronization process in the cluster to perform the
   synchronization-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.
