The event config force-sync command forces a node's EMS configuration to be synchronized with the cluster wide EMS configuration. The configuration is automatically synchronized among all nodes in the cluster, but in rare cases a node may not be updated. This command simplifies the recovery from this issue.

The following example shows where this command is useful: An email destination is configured for all CRITICAL level event occurrences. When the event is generated, all nodes generate an email except one. This command forces that node to refresh a stale configuration.
