Overwrite Configuration Sync Option in v11

I think of it just as a force configsync. You may get a situation where both appliances appear to have had changes made to their config. Without using Force then you won't be able to sync from one device to another if the peer appliance had a change after the from device. If you were sure you wanted the config pushed to the peer then, in this case, you'd need to select Force.

I also understand you may need to use Force if it appears that one big-ip doesn't think it has been synced, when the other one reports it has. There's a SOL on askf5 about this.

Hope this helps,
