Configuring Aspera Sync Endpoints Aspera Sync reads configuration settings from aspera.conf , which can be edited using asconfigurator commands or manually. The following sections provide instructions for setting Aspera-recommended security configuration, instructions for how to edit other configurations, a reference for many of the available configuration options, and a sample aspera.conf .Viewing Aspera Sync Transfers in the Aspera GUI HST Server GUI shows async -initiated transfers if Aspera Sync is run on the machine (as client) by default, whereas server async transfers are not shown.Symbolic Link Handling The Aspera Sync Database async session creates a database (snap.db ) that is stored on both the local (client) computer and the remote (server) computer. The database records the state of the file system at the end of the last async session, and the next time the session is run, the file system is compared to the database to identify changes.
