Many times you will find “Refreshing metadata” comments in eware log files while no one has done Metadata refresh manually; don’t get confuse because there are various actions listed below which triggers metadata refreshes automatically:
1. Entity customization (fields, screens, views etc.)
2. Reports
3. Dynamic Data
4. Quotes and Orders
5. Integrations
6. Users
7. Channel/Team Admin
8. Translations
9. Workflows
10. Groups
11. Key Attributes
12. Products
13.Data upload
14. Languages
15. Campaigns
16. Currency Admin
17.Components
18. Territory Admin
19. Email Templates
20. Email Client
21. Web services
22. Notifications
23.Reassign Users
24. Advanced Find
25. Database Admin
The way that metadata refreshes behave differs depending on whether you’re in a single- or multi-server environment. In a single (web) server environment, a metadata refresh for the affected area will be carried out as soon as the customization is complete. In a multi-server environment, the MetadataVersion sysparam is checked periodically by the secondary CRM servers. On completing a customization, the metadata version is incremented – this change in version triggers a full metadata refresh on all secondary servers.
In a single (web) server install, CRM will generally only refresh the metadata for the area that’s:
1. Loading caption family.
2. Loading email templates.
3. Manually refreshing metadata
4. Running component scripts
5. Refreshing translations
6. Data upload
It is not recommended carrying out full metadata refreshes in a running production system, use of features that trigger metadata refreshes should be limited wherever possible to outside of business hours.
