Data Synchronization

You can synchronize data between HP Web Jetadmin servers on your network.

You can either enter the hostname or IP address of the HP Web Jetadmin server you want to synchronize with, or you can discover all HP Web Jetadmin devices on your network (in Application Management under HP Web Jetadmin Management on page 280).

A local user must be in the following groups:

●The user group on the HP Web Jetadmin host and also be associated to a data synchronization role on that host.

●The user group on the HP Web Jetadmin remote Smart Client.

●The admin group on the data synchronization host.

Data synchronization within HP Web Jetadmin software allows you to pull device details from a remote server and add it to your server where the feature is being invoked. All the device data from the remote server that is identified as part of data synchronization settings will be populated onto your server at the time of synchronization. The sync takes place regardless of whether the devices at the remote server have already been discovered at your server. Here is an example of data synchronization:

There are two servers: Server A with 50 devices and Server B with 100 devices. The data synchronization is initiated from Server A. Out of the 50 devices on Server A, there are 10 that are not on Server B. Out of the 100 devices on Server B, there are 75 that are not on Server A. After the synchronization occurs, Server A now has 125 devices (50 original ones plus 75 from Server B) and Server B still has only 100 (the 10 devices on Server A were not pushed to Server B). The data synchronization process is a “pull” process and, more than likely, the device numbers on the servers will not match.

To synchronize the data, perform the following steps:

1.On the top menu bar, select Tools > Data Synchronization.

2.Select the HP Web Jetadmin server you want to synchronize with.

●If you know the hostname or IP address for the HP Web Jetadmin server you want to synchronize with, enter it in WJA Quick Discovery.

●If you do not know the hostname or IP address for the HP Web Jetadmin server you want to synchronize with, locate and highlight the server or servers in the list.

NOTE: If the list of HP Web Jetadmin servers is empty and you do not know the IP address or hostname, go to Application Management > Web Jetadmin Management to discover other instances of HP Web Jetadmin.

3.Perform one or more of the following actions.
