Why Do Devices Appear Automatically In a New Database of the IGEL UMS?

When you create a new datasource in your Universal Management Suite (UMS) environment, you see that devices appear automatically in the database.

When Does It Happen?

You can see the previously registered devices appear automatically in the new database, when you perform the following:

1. You install a UMS and connect it to a database.

2. You register devices in the UMS.

3. You switch to another datasource which was never been used before.

Why Does It Happen?

When you switch to a new datasource but do not reinstall the UMS, the files with the device certificates still remain in the rmguiserver folder. When the UMS starts the first time with a new database, it is designed to import those certificates to the empty database, thus registering the devices automatically.
