Purpose
The SyncProtocol.exe utility is designed to synchronize Server/Client Event log database with databases of other Servers/Clients by command if the auto synchronization is disabled.
The auto synchronization is disabled on the Computer settings panel using the Only local protocols checkbox. If this checkbox is set checked, then the auto synchronization is not performed – see Configuring events logging.
Before starting synchronization using the SyncProtocol.exe utility it is required to configure synchronization on the Computer settings panel by specifying the computers for synchronization and the Event Viewer database connection string – see Configuring the Event Viewer databases synchronization.
There is no synchronization with computers for which sending events is disabled in the Architecture tab (see Configuring the interaction of distributed system components). If the Send events checkbox is set checked, but checkboxes for all the events are set unchecked, then the events that cannot be disabled will be synchronized (for instance, SLAVE and macro events).
