Reviewing Status of Protected Files
Click the File Sync and Verify tab to review the status of protected files.
The Synchronization Status graphically displays the global status of the file synchronization and verification,
with the same seven different states in the System page.
A tree structure graphically represents the protected files and folders as defined by the file filters. Expand or
collapse each level by double-clicking the appropriate folder. The + icon next to a folder indicates the presence
of subfolders.
The right side displays the subfolders, the protected files within folders and their synchronization status.
The synchronization status for each file can read three different values depending on the verification and
synchronization states as described in Table 11-1.
Determining Effective Filters
An Effective Filter is the result of the remainder of the files and folders stipulated in the Inclusion Filter after
removing the files and folders in the Exclusion Filter.
Filters are compared with each other, and if one filter is a superset of another, the superset filter is used. You
can configure a single, general filter to replace file servers with 1000s of individual shares requested by a
plug-in. The Configuration pane displays rejections after filters are validated before passing to the replication
components.
Table 11-1. Synchronization Status
Icon Description
The file is verified and successfully synchronized.
The file is not synchronized on the active and passive servers. This state often follows a failover and
requires manual synchronization and verification.
The file or folder has not been checked because a full system check has not been performed or the system
check has not yet reached the file or folder.
