Aug 28, 2016When do we need overwrite in F5 while we want to Sync
When we want to Sync, we have option, which is "Overwrite". Any expert can tell when do we need overwrite in F5 while we want to Sync? Thank you

you must set the "Overwrite configuration" option, if other devices in your device group are running configurations with newer timestamps. Without setting the "Overwrite configuration" option, the units with newer configurations will just stick to their existing configuration.
Note: The outlined usecase above may happen if you've changed the configuration on multiple units at the same time and you want to keep the configuration with the older timestamp.
Cheers, Kai
