Target File/Folder Alterations

These options can be found in the Miscellaneous window.

Use intermediate file during copy

If this box is checked, a temporary file will be created in the Target Folder: the contents of the Source File will then be copied into this temporary file. After a successful copy, the Target File will be deleted and the temporary file will be renamed to bear the Target File name. This feature ensures that the updated file will only replace the Target File if copy is successful. If the copy process should be interrupted because of some outside factor (network down, power outage, etc), the original Target file will still be preserved. This option is enabled/disabled automatically when the Bi-directional or Revisioning options are enabled/disabled.

Trigger additional event after successful copy

When this option is checked PeerSync will apply the time stamp of the target file after successfully completing the file transfer in order to trigger an event on the target side. This action will cause the PeerSync installed on the Target to take further action with the file such as transferring it to another location that is not accessible from the originating machine.

Force target file attribute settings

If this feature is selected, the File Attributes Options dialog will be displayed. In this dialog, you may select to force any attribute on or off for the Target files that are synchronized within the selected Job(s).

File Attribute Options

This dialog provides the user the selection to ignore, force on, or force off attribute settings on Target files that are synchronized within the selected Job(s).
