Abstract
In one embodiment, a method is performed at a control point (CP) in a network. An action is invoked to create a synchronization data structure on a media server that includes a content directory service (CDS) in the network, wherein the synchronization data structure includes a synchronization relationship describing a relationship between the CP and the CDS. Then an action is invoked to add synchronization pair information to one or more objects on the CDS. A change log is requested from the CDS. Then the change log is received from the CDS, wherein the change log contains information about changes to the one or more objects to which synchronization pair information for the CP was added.
