BIG-IP : sync-failover device-group sync options
F5 BIG-IP Virtual Edition v11.4.1 (Build 635.0) LTM on ESXi
For a device-group of type sync-failover, the admin browser provides these options :
Automatic Sync
Full Sync
Maximum Incremental Sync Size (KB)
Could someone please explain these options ?
Are syncs on a time-schedule ?
Or are syncs triggered by any change to the primary ? Or exactly what types of changes will trigger a sync ?
Specifically, will a change to a data-group file ( e.g. add/delete a line ) trigger a sync ?
