[solved] Real Time Sync doing a "full sync" at random.

Postby jsivak on Thu Dec 06, 2012 3:55 pm

I've been evaluating Synccovery 6.18a and have noticed the following happening:
Using Real Time sync (Mod: Exact Mirror) profiles from 1 server to several other servers (copying content for a web-farm) eventually the profiles will get to a point where they are trying to re-sync the entire Left Side to the Right Side.

Our master server has quite a bit of data (10+ GB), so I don't want a full scan of the Left & Right sides happening *ever* in the Real Time profiles. I've already disabled/unchecked the settting "Run profile entirely one, then use Real-Time Synchronization" in the Schedule -> Real Time Settings dialog.
Also, all of the checkboxes on the Advanced tab ("Switch to a normal, full sync.." and "Switch a a full sync ifp rocessing..") are unchecked as well.

Is there some setting I'm missing to *absolutely* prevent a Real Time sync from trying to do what appears to be a full sync?

BTW: when the Real Time sync profile are working normally, they are working exactly as I want them to.. :)

Can you send a log file of such a full sync to support@syncovery.com?

Also, please try the alternative operating mode on the real-time sync dialog:

"Process Each File Event Individually"

Cheers,
Tobias

Just checked the 2 profiles I have and they already have "Process Each File Event Individually" checked.

I'll try to get a log to you by tomorrow.

Posting the solution (from email help from Tobias):

For the profiles that I had configured to do "Real-Time Sync", I *also* had "Schedule This Profile" set to run every hour. This was causing my profile to run in real-time AND to do a full sync every hour..

Thanks for the help.
