Overview
Job reset options control how SkySync will reevaluate tracking state or permission propagation on the next job execution. A Complete job reset will reevaluate by performing a combination of both a Hard and a Permissions job reset.
Rather than running a hard and permission job reset as separate runs, this option offers both in one.
Hard Job Reset: After the initial job run, subsequent runs leverage the change detection feature, which allows SkySync to focus only on transferring content that has changed rather than evaluating all content. This ensures efficient transfer performance. However, not all platforms track changes the same way. A hard reset clears all previous tracking data and allow SkySync to reevaluate the entire content hierarchy to ensure all content is transferred based on the given job configuration.
Permissions Job Reset: If only a new permission is added during a transfer but the item didn’t change, the new permission will not be detected. A permission reset allows SkySync to reevaluate all content and re-apply the permissions.
When a Complete job reset is selected in the UI, the job will automatically start the next execution if the job is not currently running. Note that reset options aren’t available for system jobs.
Using reset options hard or full will reset your reporting values on the Overview Transfer Details report in the SkySync User Interface (UI). This is expected since these options have reset all tracking states. This will not delete the job tracking data from the database.
