Synchronize DP Groups

[AdrianSan]

Hello there,

I am trying to synchronize User Defined DP Groups in distributed systems. I am trying to set which Dp-Group I want to share in the column "Detail" of "Client Configuration" panel and when I click apply, the DP-Group is saved under the internal DP named _DistSync_N (where N is the System Number).
But, doing some tests here and there, I have seen that when actually doing the synchronization, the distSyncMan.ctl check the generic DP "_DistSync" instead of the specialized "_DistSync_N", and I think there is no mean to write in the generic one (except for from the PARA).

Am I missing something?
My solution will be coding something to dpSet on the generic _DistSync but I don't think that is the way.

I have tested it with WinCC OA 3.18 P011.
When saving the configuration the DP element _DistSync.Config.SyncData.UserDefDpGroup is set. The same element at the DP _DistSync_<num> remains empty.
I cannot reproduce the behaviour you have described.
