resync

An OSS operation that maintains a local mirror of NFM-P state information, such as inventory or current alarm states, performs a resync when it knows or suspects that the locally stored state information is out of sync with the state information stored in the NFM-P. The OSS does this by requesting information via the XML API. An OSS that does not monitor events periodically performs resyncs to maintain synchronization with the NFM-P. An OSS that does monitor events requires a resync in situations where there are missed events.
