benguild Posted May 10, 2014 Report Share Posted May 10, 2014 Just wondering. I would assume it should pull newer copies from other nodes, but the files restored from backup were technically "written" more recently to disk.

benguild Posted May 11, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 11, 2014 I actually just tested this as an experiment and found inconsistent behavior. If I went in and modified the files before they synced, that copy would sync over as expected to other peers. However, for some reason if I only modified rows in a database, that database was somehow overwritten later by data from a read-only node after restoring from a system static disk backup. It'd be nice if Sync would instead prompt for conflicts (with an option to "apply for all" or something to not receive a million prompts) vs. just overwriting local data. Date differences can be a little suspicious and data loss really sucks. Could someone re-title this thread and move it to the wish list forum?
