Get sync-status

I am updating an iControl for a customer and I am unable to get the sync status of the active device. In version 10.x, I was able to access the DBVariable for Configsync.State and read the value for ...
dev
devops
iControl

I'm also very interested in that topic, because I have to recode a configsync tool from v10 to v11. After a few minutes reading this seems to be somehow very difficult.

 

It's not only the missing sync state, but also how to handle the different options.

 

There is a sync_to_group and sync_from_group call, but only with one parameter "device group". What about the option in the WebGUI "Overwrite Configuration"?

 

As the WebGUI itself is also running with iControl in the background, the requireded commands seems to be available. But why is it so complicate to document this in the latest v11-API?

 

If someone is getting further in the meanwhile please let us all know.

 

Thank you!

 

 

Ciao Stefan :)
