The seeding engine reports 100% completion because the job ran without error — it simply found no records that satisfied the configured criteria. A common trigger is a filter condition such as Discovery source is empty (or Discovery source is None) being present on the inbound entry. If no records in the producer instance carry an empty Discovery source value for that class, the query returns zero results, and zero records are sent to the consumer instance. Because the seeding request itself does not fail, no error is raised to indicate that the filter is the source of the mismatch.

You can find this by navigating to Instance Data Replication > Consumer > Replication Sets on your instance, then opening the replication set and reviewing its inbound entries. Step 1 — Identify the filter conditions on the inbound entry Open the inbound entry record for the affected replication set. Note all filter conditions currently defined, particularly any conditions referencing Discovery source. Step 2 — Replicate the filter query against the producer instance source table Navigate to the source table on the producer instance (for example, cmdb_ci_kubernetes_cluster or cmdb_ci_cloud_function) and apply the same filter conditions that are defined on the inbound entry. This confirms whether the filter returns any records. To navigate directly to a table with a filter applied, use the following URL pattern: https://<instance-name>/nav_to.do?uri=<table_name>_list.do?sysparm_query=<encoded_filter> Replace <instance-name> with your producer instance name, <table_name> with the relevant table, and <encoded_filter> with the URL-encoded filter string matching your inbound entry conditions. If the query returns 0 records, the filter is the cause of the empty seeding result. Step 3 — Remove or correct the filter condition that excludes all records Return to the inbound entry record on the consumer instance. Remove or update the condition that caused zero results — for example, remove the Discovery source is empty condition if records in the producer instance have a non-empty Discovery source value. Note: Before removing any filter condition, confirm with your administrator that doing so is intentional. Removing a restrictive condition may result in a larger record set being replicated than previously expected. Verify the expected record count in the producer table after updating the filter and before re-running the seeding request. Step 4 — Save the updated inbound entry record Select Update or Save to save the changes to the inbound entry record. Step 5 — Re-run the seeding request Navigate to Instance Data Replication > Consumer > Seeding Requests and submit a new seeding request for the affected replication set. Monitor the request to confirm it completes and that the expected number of records now appears in the consumer instance table.
