 Posted: Tue Jun 21, 2011 7:52 pm Post subject: Help / How do I . . . (Conflict Resolution) |
 |
|
I am using ViceVersa Pro to replicate files between several remote servers and a central server. I have users at each end of the pipe.
One of my Profiles looks like this for instance:
| Code: | Profile File: C:\ViceVersa Settings\GraniteQuarry.fsf
Folders
- Source: "\\sr01020\crm.data\"
- Target: "c:\crm.data\Granite Quarry\"
- Include Subfolders: Yes
Comparison
- Comparison Type: Size and Timestamp
Execution
- Method: Synchronization
- Tracking Database: "C:\ViceVersa Settings\GraniteQuarry.tdb"
- Log File: "C:\ViceVersa Settings\GraniteQuarry.log" (max 250000 KB)
- Log only summary and errors
- No archive for deleted/replaced source files
- No archive for deleted/replaced target files
- Copy file/folder permissions
- Copy file/folder auditing
- Copy file/folder owner |
The profile is the scheduled in the engine as such:
| Code: |
Schedule: Run at startup - Monitor source(s) and target(s) and run when file changes are detected - Run immediately as soon as source and target are accessible |
What I am seeing is that users at each end may open the same file, both of them at the same time, then both save changes. This creates a conflict that VV is unable to resolve, requiring manual intervention.
I would like to resolve that more cleanly within VV.
In my example, the Source folder is **always** right. In other words, in a save conflict situation, the Target end should always be ignored / overwritten. Edit: However, if there is no conflict, changes should be accepted from either end. This can include new files and deletions. It's only conflicts that I want to address.
How can I best achieve this functionality?
Thanks! |

Hi,
there is no way to force source always in case of a conflict, but there's an option to force the newer file in case of a conflict, the option is in profile settings -> advanced settings. However the option could still make ViceVersa copy from target to source when there is a conflict.
thanks

| Hmmm. I don't see any option like that in Advanced Settings . . . is there a newer version? I'm running ViceVersa PRO 2.5 Build 2501 (SN229). |
