Which is the least ideal Synchronization Status for Security Management Server High Availability deployment?
The least ideal synchronization status for a Security Management Server High Availability deployment is 'Collision'. In a collision state, the Active Security Management Server and its peer have different installed policies and/or databases. This requires manual synchronization and a decision on which server's data should be retained, creating a significant risk and operational overhead. Other states such as 'Never been synchronized', while not ideal, do not imply conflicting data, and 'Lagging' suggests the peer is simply out-of-date but still consistent. 'Synchronized' is the ideal state where both servers have the same data.
Agree, answer is D Collision — The Active Security Management Server and its peer have different installed policies and/or databases. The System Administrator must perform manual synchronization and decide which of the servers to overwrite.
right answer is D not C. Collision is the least ideal synchronisation pour HA deployement.
Collision is least ideal
I think Is D, CCSE studen & Lab manual page 337. Never been synchronized — Immediately after the Secondary Security Management Server has been installed, it has not yet undergone the first manual synchronization that brings it up-to-date with the Primary Security Management Server. • Synchronized — The peer is properly synchronized and has the same database information and installed Security Policy. • Lagging — The peer Security Management Server has not been synchronized since the Active Security Management Server had changes applied to it. • Advanced — The peer Security Management Server is more up-to-date. • Collision — The Active Security Management Server and its peer have different installed policies and/or databases. The System Administrator must perform manual synchronization and decide which of the servers to overwrite
Ideal Synchronization Status is Cynchronized!! A
"least ideal" is the opposite of "ideal".. Thats why its D and not A
Had this question today in exam. with a twist i.e. both the server has variation in DB

C. Lagging?
