Initiating Verify and Synchronize Manually
To verify and synchronize folders
1Use Verify & Synchronize and select Include Subdirectories to ensure all underlying files and subfolders
are included in the verification and synchronization operation.
2 Right-click a folder to access a popup menu to perform quick synchronization and verification of folders
and subfolders.
A manual or scheduled synchronization and verification request is defined as a task that is queued for
processing after the running task completes. Tasks display in the Pending Tasks pane. You can cancel
individual tasks. If you cancel a scheduled task, you risk an unchecked system. Possible consequences of
canceling tasks display in a warning message.
Initiating a Full System Check
You can verify and synchronize the entire protected file set with Full System Check. A Full System Check
performs the same block level check of all the files set by the file filters in the initial startup synchronization
and verification.
When you click Full System Check, a window asks you to confirm the request and warns you that depending
on the amount of data under protection, this task can take a long time to complete (for example, a number of
hours). Click Yes to perform the check.
Switchover cannot occur until the full system check completes and the File System Status is Synchronized.
