SYNCHRONIZE
the maximum number of files to be processed by one BACKUP process.
When processing large file sets, AutoSYNC divides the synchronized files into 
subsets, each processed by a separate BACKUP process. BACKUP 
performance decreases significantly with the number of files it processes. To 
avoid performance degradation, AutoSYNC starts multiple BACKUP 
processes, in sequence, and assigns to each no more than the configured 
num-of-files.
The default is 1000. 
NETWORKS[ECURE] | NO NETWORKS[ECURE]
enables or disables changing the security of the destination files for network 
access.
By default NETWORKSECURE is enabled and file security is changed as 
follows:
The default is NETWORKSECURE, but the SECURE option overrides 
NETWORKSECURE.
NOSAFEGUARD | NO NOSAFGUARD
specifies that the Safeguard ACL for a source Enscribe disk file is not 
propagated to the destination when the file is synchronized. A warning is 
written to the log file to notify the user that the Safeguard setting for the source 
file has been turned off on the destination.
The default is NO NOSAFEGUARD and the ACL for a source file is 
propagated to the synchronized destination file.
RECOVERY | NO RECOVERY
enables or disables the recovery option.
If recovery is enabled, AutoSYNC saves a copy of an existing destination file to 
an archive subvolume with the name of the Autosync MapDB before it restores 
a later copy of the file. If a failure occurs during the synchronization and the file 
is corrupted, the archived copy is recovered and replaces the corrupted file.
This option overrides the global parameter [AUTO]SYNCRECOVER.
By default, recovery is enabled.
