One for the documentation but what are the various synchronisation types and what do they mean? In the attached example, it's "Fast".

Cheers, Rob.

If functionality is the same as in v6, FAST synchronization will only sync the changes since the last time the HA pair were in sync.. FULL sync means it'll resynchronize the entire destination from the source.

Still haven't jumped into v8 yet as I'm waiting for the new build to hopefully fix synchronization and service crashing issues I was experiencing in v6.

Cheers,

Exactly! Still haven't jumped into v8 yet as I'm waiting for the new build to hopefully fix synchronization and service crashing issues I was experiencing in v6.
