Synchronizing Files

If problems occur when communicating with the iFolder server while either uploading or downloading files, iFolder will return an error and will not try again to upload or download until the next set synchronization interval.


Synchronizing Your GroupWise Archive

WARNING:  Do not try to synchronize your GroupWise® archive by setting a GroupWise archive path to the location of your iFolder directory. If you do this, the iFolder client will corrupt the GroupWise archive. This happens because iFolder does not synchronize files as a set and GroupWise needs the files in the archive to be maintained as a set of files.

This problem has been identified for GroupWise; however, similar problems might arise with any database that is implemented as a collection of linked files.


Synchronizing Open Files

If you have an open iFolder file on your workstation, iFolder will not be able to synchronize that open file with the iFolder server.
