Introduction
The Sync Tool is a utility which was created in order to provide a simple way to move files from a local file system to DuraCloud.
Download
Download the Sync Tool from the Downloads page. Note that this is the same file as is available via the "Get Sync Tool" button on the DuraCloud UI.
Sync Tool Interfaces
The Sync Tool has two interfaces, providing the choice of whether the user prefers a command line or a graphical display.
- Graphical interface
- Provides a web-browser-based application user interface which begins with a configuration wizard, then provides a dashboard display showing the current status of the sync process.
- Command line interface
- Provides a command line interface which can be executed directly, used in scripts, or used for scheduling sync activities (such as within a cron job.)
- Provides access to all feature of the Sync Tool, some of which are not available (yet) in the graphical interface.
