The Synchronization Summary view aggregates critical status and statistical information from all configured File Synchronization jobs in a single table view. It is automatically displayed when the Peer Management Center client is started and can be opened at any other time by double-clicking on the File Synchronization parent tree node in the Job's View or by clicking the View Runtime Summary icon in the toolbar of the Jobs view. Information in this view can be sorted and filtered. Operations such as starting, stopping, and editing multiple jobs at once are available, in addition to the ability to clear Monitoring Alerts, Start PeerSync, Stop PeerSync, Reprocess Failed Events, Request Support Info File and Reprocess/Upgrade Installation.
Unlike other views within the Peer Management Center, the Synchronization Summary View is not updated in real-time. This is done for performance reasons. Instead, the table can be set to automatically update itself every few seconds. Clicking Enable Auto-Update will enable this functionality, while the refresh interval (in seconds) can be set right beside the check box. Additional columns can be added to and removed from the table from the right-click context menu.
Double-clicking on any item in the table will automatically open the selected File Synchronization job in a tab within the Runtime Summary view, allowing you to drill down and view specific information about that single job. Items in the summary table can be filtered by job name, overall status, activity state and host participant name.
Selecting one or more items in the table, then right-clicking will bring up a context menu of available actions that can be performed on the selected jobs. The actions that are unique to this table are as follows:
