RefreshSCF Method in Class SMS_SiteControlFile

  • Article

The RefreshSCF WMI class method updates your in-memory copy of the site control file from the database.

The following syntax is simplified from MOF code and is intended to show you the definition of the method.

sint32     RefreshSCF(
  [in] string SiteCode
);

Parameters

  • SiteCode
    Data type: string
    Qualifiers: In

    Identifies the site from which you are refreshing your in-memory copy of the site control file.

Return Values

The RefreshSCF method returns a sint32 that is always zero (0).

Remarks

The RefreshSCF method updates your in-memory copy of the site control file with any changes that have been made to the actual site control file. Refreshing your copy of this file helps ensure that you are working with the most up-to-date copy of the site control file. Other applications, including SMS, can change the site control file. Thus, you should use RefreshSCF ** frequently.

Note that you may not see your changes applied when you commit your changes and immediately call RefreshSCF. This is due to possible delays in the commit process. Also, your changes may be overridden by someone else during the period when you committed your data and refreshed your copy of the site control file.
