SYNCHRONIZE

If a system is specified, it must be the local system; exclusion pertains only
to source files, not destination files.

If the PURGE option is specified, a file on the exclude list is not purged on
the destination system, even if other files in the same source subvolume
are synchronized.

Note that some performance degradation could occur if an exclude file
containing a long list of files is shared by multiple syncfilesets.

The exclude file supports all legal disk file patterns. Refer to the NonStop
documentation for legal disk file patterns.

Guardian file sets:

The exclude file supports all legal disk file patterns.

OSS file sets:

Entries in the exclude-file can specify a pattern but the file and directory
names must be fully qualified with absolute pathnames.

Note the following case for the exclusion of a directory:

exclude-file entry: /home/group/user/destdir/A/KA (without last "/")

does not exclude directory: /home/group/user/destdir/A/KA/

while exclude-file entry: /home/group/user/destdir/A/KA*

or /home/group/user/destdir/A/KA/

excludes directory: /home/group/user/destdir/A/KA/

FROMO[WNER] user-id

instructs Autosync to synchronize only the source files owned by the specified
user ID. By default the whole source fileset is synchronized, regardless of the
ownership of the files, as long as security settings do not prevent it.

An OSS directory that is not owned by the specified owner is skipped, along
with all its files and subdirectories, even if some of the subordinate files or
subdirectories are owned by the specified user ID.

[IP]HOST[NAME] { tcpip-address | host-name }

(for synchronization over TCP/IP only)

address of the destination system specified as an internet address or the
configured internet name of the host system.

tcpip-address is specified in the dotted decimal format nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn
(example: 16.107.164.200).
