Title:
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR SYNCHRONIZATION OF ITEMS WITHOUT SNAPSHOT
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2006178932
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
To provide systems and methods for synchronizing mixed elements (MEs) comprising structure data components and unstructured filestream between peer computer systems in a hardware/software interface system environment that does not permit snapshotting of large unstructured ME filestreams during synchronization.
The method comprises synchronizing ME in two steps, one for snapshotting the structured data component of the ME (as well as the cv of the filestream but not the fiestream itself) and one for transmitting the filestream to the receiving sync peer if and only if, after being locked, it is determined that the filestream is unchanged from the time of the ME data component snapshot.
