Set Up Synchronization Interval

The Global server waits between the synchronizations, the default value is 360 minutes. This can be set in the Management Console (default = 360; minimum = 10).

To set the synchronization interval, navigate to Server setup > System Settings > G-SIM Server and enter the interval in minutes in the Global Server Sync Minutes setting.

Merge of setup changes:

There may occur conflicts regarding the synchronization of the servers. This happens when a G-SIM server receives changes from two users in the same set of entities. In general, conflicts may result from the following two situations:

  • Multiple ManCon access: Two ManCons are simultaneously connected to the same G-SIM server and two users make changes in the same lists of entities.

  • G-SIM Global: A user has made changes in the setup of one Global G-SIM server while this server has received changes from other Global G-SIM servers via Global synchronization.

Example In this example, the user RemoteUser was changed on another G-SIM server. In this case, the option Keep remote changes must be selected. The user LocalUser was changed on the local G-SIM server. Here, the option Accept local changes must be selected.

Resolve the conflicts as follows:

  • For entities which were edited by yourself, choose Accept local changes.

  • For entities which were edited by another user, choose Keep remote changes.
