Hello everyone,

I currently have two file servers using Samba hosting the mac packages. Server A is the master and B is a replica. I'm using RSYNC to copy, with a cronjob setting a schedule. We don't have too many packages, so the packaging folks is not too active.

I'm curious what are folk's schedule for replicating across file servers? (lab and prod)

Usually 9PM local time every evening for our 29 global DPs. We use Carbon Copy Cloner for RSYNC.

@SirMuttonChops I think it depends on your org.

Due to bandwidth limitations between sites, we can only RSYNC over weekends.
