Which of the following is NOT a valid synchronization status?

One thought on “Which of the following is NOT a valid synchronization status?”

1. Never been synchronized – immediately after the Secondary Security Management server has been installed, it has not yet undergone the first manual synchronization that brings it up to date with the Primary Security Management server.
   Synchronized – the peer is properly synchronized and has the same database information and installed Security Policy.
   Lagging – the peer SMS has not been synchronized properly.
   For instance, on account of the fact that the Active SMS has undergone changes since the previous synchronization (objects have been edited, or the Security Policy has been newly installed), the information on the Standby SMS is lagging.

   Advanced – the peer SMS is more up-to-date.
   For instance, in the above figure, if a system administrators logs into Security Management server B before it has been synchronized with the Security Management server A, the status of the Security Management server A is Advanced, since it contains more up-to-date information which the former does not have.

   In this case, manual synchronization must be initiated by the system administrator by changing the Active SMS to a Standby SMS. Perform a synch me operation from the more advanced server to the Standby SMS. Change the Standby SMS to the Active SMS.

   Collision – the Active SMS and its peer have different installed policies and databases. The administrator must perform manual synchronization and decide which of the SMSs to overwrite.
