| + | A **//red// status icon means that there is a problem** that you should investigate and fix | ||

| ===== Synchronizing folders on different computers ===== | ===== Synchronizing folders on different computers ===== | ||
| + | |||
| + | It should be very easy to synchronize folders, **if you have read all the previous sections of this page**! | ||
| + | |||
| + | ==== How does it work ? ==== | ||
| + | |||
| + | Basically, we are just going to use ownCloud, and mirror folders from two (or more) computers to the LSCE | ||
| + | //sharebox// server ! | ||
| + | |||
| + | <WRAP center round box 60%> | ||
| + | Local folder on **computer A** <wrap em><=></wrap> <wrap hi>**sharebox server**</wrap> <wrap em><=></wrap> Local folder on **computer B** | ||
| + | |||
| + | Example use case: | ||
| + | * **computer A**: computer at work | ||
| + | * **computer B**: computer at home | ||
| + | </WRAP> | ||
| + | |||
| + | A file (or folder) //changed// (created, updated or removed) on **computer A** will: | ||
| + | - be mirrored to the sharebox server | ||
| + | - and then mirrored to **computer B** | ||
| + | |||
| + | This will work seamlessly provided you <wrap em>don't change the same file (or folder) at the same time on different computers !!</wrap> This will be easy to do if you: | ||
| + | |||
| + | * save and close files in mirrored folders before moving from one computer to the other (e.g. before going back home, or going to work) | ||
| + | * make sure the computers are online //long enough// to mirror their files to the sharebox server before switching the computers off | ||
| + | |||
