SymmetricDS: sync client nodes to each other

Question

I have symmetricDS configured so that there is one master node in the cloud, and then two "store" (client) nodes in remote locations.

If I insert data in the cloud, it is syncd to both clients. If I insert data in a client, it is syncd to the cloud.

However, data added on client1 never makes it to client2 and data added on client2 never makes it to client1...

Any ideas on this?

Thanks

Yes you would want a second set of triggers (maybe prefix each with the name cloud_*) that has an additional flag turned on sym_trigger.sync_on_incoming_batch=1. This will cause changes coming in as part of replication from client 1..n to be captured and resent to all other clients.

This can be more efficient that a client to client group link solution because usually the clients do not all have access over a network to sync to each other. So the change would sync to the cloud and then be redistributed to the other clients.
