There are several options for downloading a CIOC and its CHARMs:
Download the controller hosting a CIOC or individual CHARMs under a CIOC — This downloads the controller and any assigned CHARM definitions to the database.
Download an individual CIOC — This downloads any pending definitions for any CHARMs under the selected CIOC. Downloading completes the channel definitions and enables the CHARMs. If the CIOC is assigned to a controller, the controller is updated with the CIOC download information.
Download the CHARMs subsystem — this option downloads changes to all CHARMs in this CSLS.
Download individual CHARM only — this option downloads the configuration's definition of the individual CHARM to the CIOC.
If the configuration has not changed since the last download, either the CHARM definition or the CHARM definition and CHARM assignment can be downloaded. However, if the configuration has changed since the last download, the CHARM definition and CHARM assignment are downloaded even if Download individual CHARM only is selected.
