Synchronization

On the Synchronization tab, you can configure parameters for updating the Server repository from GUS:

The Number of temporary stored revisions field specifies the number of product revisions temporary stored on disk not including revisions which are marked at least in one column of the Revisions list tab. When a new revision is received and the number of temporary stored revisions already reached the specified allowed value, the oldest temporary stored revision is removed. Revisions marked as Current, Stored, Distributed and Held are not automatically removed and are not taken into account when calculating temporary stored revisions.

This setting will be overwritten with a single value for all products if the Dr.Web GUS section is edited.

Set the Disable product update flag to disable receiving updates for this product from the GUS servers. Agents will be updated to the current revision on the Server (or according to the procedure used to select the distributed revision).

Set the Update on demand only flag to update the product from GUS only when this product is requested from stations. Otherwise, product updates are not downloaded from GUS.

If your Server is connected to the internet for receiving repository updates from GUS automatically, then using this option, additional configuration by administrator is not required: updates will be automatically downloaded as soon as one of the stations requests updates of this product from the Server.

If your Server is not connected to the internet, and updates are loaded manually from other Server or using the Repository Loader, before installing or updating products with the Update on demand only option, you must first manually load these products to the repository.

info

After installing the Server version 12 or immediate after upgrading the Server to version 12, updates of the Dr.Web Agent for Android, Dr.Web Agent for UNIX and Dr.Web Proxy Server repository products are loaded from GUS by default only upon the request of these products from stations.

In the Propagation via interserver connections section you can configure the following parameters:

Set the Prevent sending updates to neighbor Servers flag to forbid sending the product updates via the interserver connections. The option does not affect the product update settings from GUS.

Set the Prevent receiving updates from neighbor Servers flag to forbid receiving the product updates via the interserver connections. The option does not affect the product update settings from GUS.

For some products, the following settings are also available:

Set the Update only following files flag to receive updates from GUS only for the file listed below.

Set the Do not update only following files flag to disable updating from GUS only for the file listed below.

Files can be specified in the format of regular expressions.

If both flags are set, files for an update are selected as follows:

1.From the full list of product files only those are selected that are specified in the Update only following files lists.

2.From the selection at step 1, files specified in the Do not update only following files lists are removed.

3.Files resulting from the selection at step 2 are updated from GUS.
