File Synchronization
In external storage and replication systems using vaults to store content files, file synchronization refers to the process of moving content files from their initial upload location (that is, a local vault that is designated as a cache) to the storage location designated by system vaulting rules for the master copies of the content files.

Until and unless content is synchronized, neither revaulting nor replication of the content is possible.
|
By default, the system triggers a synchronization of the entire system (the master site and all the sites registered with the master). Because wt.fv.sync.disableCreateScheduleAtStartup property is set to false by default, a synchronization schedule exists out-of-the-box. To change the number of file synchronizations, use the sysUpdateSyncInterval operation that is available from the > MBean.

In the past, file synchronization for content uploaded to remote file servers was an implicit component of replication operations. However, it is now separately manageable with the CacheVaultSynchronizer MBean.
|
The CacheVaultSynchronizer MBean enables you to:
• Schedule the frequency and time of file synchronization on a site-specific or systemwide basis.
• Immediately begin file synchronization (site-specific or systemwide).
• Cancel current or scheduled file synchronization operations.
• Access log history information for file synchronization operations.
