What Data Can Be Shared?

You can share data from the forms listed in the table below. The table provides the following information:

Groups - identifies the form classification
Form Name - identifies the form
Share Form Data With - identifies the default setting for the scope of the data distribution:

Sync Behavior - identifies the default synch behavior for shared data:
Overwrite deletes any system data on the slave that does not exist on the master
Merge adds any system data on slave controller that does not exist on the master controller to the master controller. Note that user and device data, with the exception of the User Authorization profile data, is always overwritten. By default, the User Authorization profile data is merged.

Notes:
See also Limitations of Data Sharing and Data Sharing in a Mixed Cluster.
Within shared forms, you can restrict specific data fields that you do not want to share. See Identifying the Shared Data for instructions.

Note 1: The Cluster Elements form supports SDS operations that have a cluster scope. For data sharing, the Cluster Elements form has been split into two separate components: "Cluster Definition" and "Cluster Members".

The Cluster Definition component shares the Cluster name. Although the PNI can be changed in the Cluster Elements form, it is not shared from this form. The 3300 NE Properties component of the Network Elements form allows the PNI to be shared. You cannot modify the sharing scope.

The Cluster Member component contains the System Name, Cluster Element ID (CEID), the CEID Index number, CEID digits, Feature DN, and Comments. All data in the form are shared. If you delete an element from a cluster, the data will be automatically deleted from each element that is sharing the form, provided that the data is not referenced in the element's Remote Directory Numbers form. You cannot modify the sharing scope of this component.
Note 2: In the Controller Registry form, only the following OPS Manager related data is shared by SDS.

OpsMgrFtpPassword
OpsMgrFtpUsername
OpsMgrHostName
OpsMgrIPAddress

Note 3: The Network Elements form supports SDS operations that have a network scope. For data sharing, this form has been split into two separate components: "Generic Properties" and "3300 NE Properties".

The Generic Properties component shares the Network Element name and the IP Address across all network elements. You cannot modify the sharing scope because this data is required at the network level for SDS to function.

The 3300 NE Properties component shares the Primary Node Identifier (PNI) and the Cluster Element Index (CEID) of the 3300 ICP and SX-2000 systems at the specified scope. You cannot define the scope of the 3300 NE properties in the Data Sharing form.
Note 4: Ensure that you set the VM Mailboxes form and the VM Multi-Level Auto Attendants form to share data at the same scope (Resilient Pair or None).
Note 5: SDS administrators can distribute administrator user profile data to each element within the SDS network. To prevent all administrators from having access to all elements in the network, the SDS administrator must restrict administrators to specific elements by defining the administrator profiles that should not be shared (see Identifying the Shared Data). For example, an SDS administrator can decide not to share the profile of administrators whose login IDs are between "localAdmin1" and "localAdmin9" to prevent them from being able to login to a specific element.
Note 6: For the SMDR Options form, SDS shares all fields except the System Identification and Tag Call Identifier.

Note 7: SDS does not support Hot Desk PIN changes that are made through the Superkey. Only changes made through the Multiline IP Sets form or from the Desktop tool are supported.
Note 8: Sharing User Authorization Profile data with a pre-Release 8.0 system requires mapping of policy data to administration access data and vice versa. The following tables describe the mapping that takes place:

Admin Policy to Admin Access Mapping
From 8.0	To Pre-8.0
Root Admin policy	SDS Admin Access
System Admin policy	System Admin Access
Remote System Admin policy	System Admin Access
Custom policy	System Admin Access

The handling of policy data in the Release 8.0 system is different when the SDS change comes from a pre-8.0 system. For first-time changes to a user profile made on the pre-8.0 system, the mapping from the above table applies. If that profile is then assigned a custom policy on the 8.0 system, subsequent changes to the profile coming from the pre-8.0 system will be ignored.

Admin Access to Admin Policy Mapping
From Pre-8.0	To 8.0
SDS Admin Access	Root Admin policy
System Admin Access	System Admin policy

Note 9: For the 5235 Idle Softkeys form, SDS shares only the Prime Directory Number (key) and Personal Softkeys Selected fields.
