Synchronization Profile Properties window: Basic Dbmlsync

This tab has the following components:

Subscriptions

Synchronization type

Bi-directional Choose this option to perform bi-directional synchronizations. See -bc dbmlsync option.
Upload only Choose this option to perform only upload synchronizations. See -uo dbmlsync option.
Download only Choose this option to perform download-only synchronizations. See -ds dbmlsync option.
Continue download Choose this option to restart previously failed downloads. See -bc dbmlsync option.
Create download file Choose this option to create a download file. Specify the name of the download file. You should use the file extension .df for download files.
You can optionally specify a path. If you do not specify a path, the default location is the dbmlsync current working directory, which is the directory where dbmlsync was started. See -bc dbmlsync option.
- Download file extra Optionally, specify -be filename to specify a string that can be validated at the remote database. See -be dbmlsync option.
  Specify -bg filename to create a download file for remote databases that have not yet synchronized. See -bg dbmlsync option.
- Update generation number Specifies the generation number for the synchronization subscription.
  Generation numbers provide a mechanism for forcing remote databases to upload data before applying any more download files. A separate generation number is automatically maintained for each synchronization subscription on the database. See MobiLink generation numbers.
Apply download file Choose this option to apply the specified download file. See -ba dbmlsync option.
Ping Choose this option to ping the MobiLink server. This option only confirms communications between the UltraLite client and the MobiLink server; it does not synchronize any data. See -pi dbmlsync option.

Transactional upload Choose whether each transaction on the remote database should be uploaded as a separate transaction within one synchronization. See -tu dbmlsync option.
Download read size For restartable downloads, specifies the maximum amount of data that may need to be resent after a communication failure. See -drs dbmlsync option.
