Synchronizing with the Server
When the synchronization process is initiated, the AirBEAM Smart Client attempts to open an FTP
session using the AirBEAM Smart Client configuration. Once connected, the client processes the
specified packages. Packages are loaded only if the server version of a given package is different from
the version loaded on the client. Once the upload process is complete, the AirBEAM Smart Client
closes the FTP session with the server.
The AirBEAM Smart Client can launch an FTP session with the server either manually, when initiated
by the user, or automatically.
Manual Synchronization
1. Configure the AirBEAM Smart Client. See Configuring the AirBEAM Smart Client on page
9-4.
2. From the main AirBEAM Smart window, select File - Synchronize.
