Management Sync

[Simon_Macpherso]

Hi Checkmates,

Is there a document that outlines what data isn't sync'd during a full primary to secondary management sync? 

Is /opt/CPsuite-R80.40/fw1/lib/crypt.def sync'd?

Regards,

Simon

I assume manual file tweaks like to crypt.def are not synced.
Anything done via the API or SmartConsole should be synced.

Does system backup catch .def and other files?

Yes, but that does not help - see sk30919: Creating customized rules for Check Point Security Gateway - 'user.def' file for details : All changes to ".def" files will be overwritten when upgrading to a new version. Therefore, before the upgrade, these files should be backed up. After the upgrade, all the changes have to be made again manually. Do not copy the old files over the new ones, because the syntax and the contents change between the versions.

conf and DB are synced. lib folder is not.
