Creating Synchronization Groups

A synchronization group includes a policy that defines the synchronization schedule for the mobile business objects (MBOs) within it. Create as many synchronization groups as required to meet the varying synchronization schedules of the MBOs for a given mobile application project.

1. To launch the New Synchronization Group wizard, either:
   • Switch to the Advanced developer profile, then right-click the Synchronization Groups folder under a mobile application project from the WorkSpace Navigator, and select New > Synchronization group, or
   • From Sybase Unwired WorkSpace, select File > New > Synchronization group.
2. Specify properties for the synchronization group and click Finish.
   • Name – name of the synchronization group.
   • Change detection interval – the frequency, in hours, minutes, and seconds, with which Unwired Server is notified of data changes within the synchronization group.
   • Description – an optional description.
   • Use as default synchronization group – identifies the synchronization group as the project's default. Change the default synchronization group by selecting this option for the group you want to define as the default. All MBOs automatically belong to the default synchronization group when created, except MBOs that are not bound to any data source, and cannot be synchronized.

     Sybase Unwired WorkSpace includes a "Default" synchronization groups folder (with a change detection level set to 10 minutes), which ensures there is always at least one folder available.

3. The properties for all synchronization groups can be modified by right-clicking the synchronization group folder and selecting Properties.
