Preparation:
The PeerSync installation should be installed on a machine that can see the folders that need to be synchronize on the two machines – this may be either machine involved in the synchronization, or a completely separate machine.
Note:
Generally performance will be greatest when PeerSync is installed on one of the two machines involved in the synchronization.
The following steps are performed on the machine where PeerSync is installed.
1. Start PeerSync Profiler.
2. Click on the Job menu at the top and choose Add then select Filter with Defaults.
3. Change the drop-down list in the top left from Basic to Advanced.
4. In the Folder Selection window, enter the local drive path or UNC path that needs to be replicated in the Source Path field. Enter the UNC path or mapped drive letter for the destination of the replicated data in the Target Path field.
5. In the File Options window, check the options Add-synchronize new files and Update-synchronize existing files. If you would like file and folder deletion events to be replicated to the second server, check the option Replicate-Delete unmatched files. If this is enabled, we recommend checking the Move deleted files to an alternate location option then clicking on the Move Options… button and selecting a folder or recycling bin to place the deleted files in, otherwise files will be permanently deleted from the system.
6. In the Automation window, under the Scanning Options section, you will be able to schedule the synchronization to Scan Job every x minutes or setting up a daily timer schedule by selecting Scan Job at x.
7. (Optional) In the Startup Options window, choose the desired startup method. In order to setup PeerSync to run unattended as a service, choose Install as an NT Service.
Note: If running as a service, make sure the service is using a non-local system account, such as domain admin or any other account that has access to the replicated directories.
8. Save the profile by going to the File menu and choosing Save or Save As.
9. Run PeerSync by going to the Run/View Current Profile. |
