Servers - Sync Server Objects​

Server Sync provides the ability to sync Jobs and global objects between two or ore more VisualCron Servers. It is idea for Master/Slave or Productio/Test relationships between Servers.

One Server can subscribe to the following events for all objects on another Server:

  • Deleted

You can Sync objects manually or setup a Server to sync automatically.

This feature was introduced in version 9.2.0 of VisualCron.
