sent again but trimmed to fit within the mailing list size limits. Ren, reply or it will be held for approval on the mailing list.

when you search, are you using slptool? if so, after step 3 run slptool but with the (I think) -u option to do a unicast search against a particular daemon. I think you might find that your app is using the same slp.conf as the daemon and so registers directly with the DA. ie. the SA is never involved and so has nothing to sync to the DA when it comes back up. Make sense?

Hi Matt,

In my test case, there are two slpd daemons, one is a DA (net.slp.isDA=true),  and one is SA which statically configured to communicate with DA (set the net.slp.DAAddresses to the DA IP address).

I conducted more tests today with net.slp.DASyncReg = true. Here is the test result:


1)      Start slpd on the DA machine

2)      Start slpad on the SA machine

3)      Run the SA application with SLPReg call

4)      Run slptool findsrvs command, the registered service is found no problem

5)      Shutdown slpd on the DA machine

6)      Run slptool findsrvs command again, the registered service can't found. I think this is OK since there is no DA and my SA is pointing to an invalid DA.

7)      Start slpd on the DA machine again

8)      Run slptool findsrvs command again, the registered service still can't found - I think this is a problem.

Regards,

Ren

How many SLP daemons are running in your system? Do you actually have an SA running?

Hi Matt,

Please see my answers bellow:

when your app runs, does it register and then exit or does it stay running?
It stays running.

do you have the watchPID functionality switched on?
No, it is off

Is the app registering with an SA or with a DA directly?
I have a DA IP address specified, e.g: net.slp.DAAddresses = 10.16.19.20
But, net.slp.DASyncReg is set to false, not sure if it is the issue

Are the SA and the DA using the same scope? Are they just using DEFAULT?
I didn't provide any scope in the conf file, I believe they using the default scope.

Ren
