Real-Time Sync not watching the destination

[FrantisekHoralek]

When I use Real-Time Synchronization (instead of hour/minute/second schedule), the profile run well only for the first time. Then, when I delete the destination files, Real-Time Sync do not find out that the destination is not there anymore, and is continuously telling me that "Nothing to be done". When I use schedule (for example every 5 seconds), then Syncovery works fine, runnig profile again, when the destination is not as it should be.

I think Real-Time Sync is not working well in this manner. Am I missing something?

Here are differencies:

Code: Select all

[Schedule->Monitoring]
Realtime=Yes
MonitoringIntervalSeconds=20
[Realtime]
RealtimeFolderMode=Yes

Code: Select all

[Schedule]
ScheduledNormally=Yes
RepeatAfter=Yes
NextDateTime=6.9.2012 3:14:16
OrigTimeOfDay=3:13:06
Days=0
Secs=5

I don't understand what you mean by "watching the destination". If you are copying in one direction only, real-time watches the source folders only, and not the destination folders.

The whole idea of real-time is that changes that occur on the source side are mirrored to the destination.

Or, if you have a two-way sync, then changes are seen on both sides.

Additional restrictions apply, for example FTP folders cannot be monitored in real-time. See also

I see. I thought that the difference between "Schedule" and "Real-Time" is WHEN the check happens, not HOW it happens. OK, I will use scheduler.

Yes, the difference is both when and how it happens. Real-time is triggered by events that occur on the source side, or both sides if it is a two-way sync.
