How to Sync F5 configuration using Python SDK

I tried the following to sync the config. 

mgmt.tm.sys.configsync.synchronize_to_group_v2('SYNC-FAILOVER','/Common/test-host.com')

The idea is to 'sync' and also optionally to do a 'force sync'

    After some more more reading of f5 python sdk docs, I was able to get it working. Kindly let me know if there is a better way of doing it.

    For Force Push

    mgmt.tm.cm.exec_cmd('run', utilCmdArgs='config-sync force-full-load-push to-group ')

    For Push

    mgmt.tm.cm.exec_cmd('run', utilCmdArgs='config-sync to-group ')

      Is there a way to get a feedback of whether the Sync was successful or not in one go ?

       

      Currently I have to run the above command and run another command to check for sync status.
