How do I sync colours between nodes with Jira Data Center?

[Tamara Schacham]

Our highlighted drop-down menu items were not legible because the text colour was too similar to the background colour.  I changed all the colours via the "Look and Feel" settings while logged in to Node1.  The colours changed for the menus on Node2 but not on Node1.

Any thoughts on why this would happen and how it can be corrected?

Restarting each node (one at a time) will clear the server cache. 

I've also seen project screen changes only show up on the node it was made on. Had to wait for cache replication to catch up and display the changes on the other nodes.

Thanks Don!

I may be wrong but I guess that the configurations of the Look and feel are stored in the Database. Once you change the settings it should reflect in the nodes since the Architecture of DC will be 1 DB and multiple nodes.

It may be that the cache is still in your browser while testing this, please clear the cache or use Incognito in testing settings.

Thanks Bryan!

I tried the Incognito test but I got the same result.

What worked in the end was logging into Node2 and resetting the colours there. Node1 updated right away.
