Synchronizing HP Web Jetadmin Installations

Once discovered, other HP Web Jetadmin device details can be synchronized into the device details of the HP Web Jetadmin that performed the discovery. The devices themselves and user-selected attributes will be added to the local All Devices list.

The control for this synchronization feature can be found in Tools > Data Synchronization. From the Data Synchronization interface you can quick-discover other HP Web Jetadmin instances, synchronize the local All Devices list (requires credentials), schedule synchronization and manage existing synchronization schedules.

NOTE: During the synchronization process, device details from the remote HP Web Jetadmin instance are added to the local HP Web Jetadmin database. This is not a two-way synchronization. The Data Synchronization feature on the local HP Web Jetadmin instance facilitates a one-way data transfer. For more information, see Data Synchronization on page 290.

Characteristics of this data synchronization between versions of HP Web Jetadmin are:

HP Web Jetadmin Quick Discovery can have an IP address or IP Hostname applied to it for the purpose of locating other instances of HP Web Jetadmin software.
