Availability Group sync - How does it work?

Hi everyone,
I am new to SQL Availability Groups and have problems understanding the sync mechanism. I did not find  proper answer on my search.
I'd like to know how to sync between the databases works. To my understanding there are 2 possibilities.
1) The listener cares to keep the data synced. Whenever the listener gets a (write) request it sends it to all nodes and in synchronous state it waits for ack.
2) The sync happens on the database level. The primary node receives the request and sends it to the replicas server.
Would be nice if someone could shortly explain the correct mechanism to me.
Thank you.

Hello,
The short answer is that the primary sends log blocks to the replicas of the databases in its' group. When they are sent depends on if it's synchronous or asynchronous.

  • Query folding available datasources and how does it work with HDInsight

    Hi everyone,
    is there anywhere official list of data sources that support query folding? I searched for quite a long time and the only list I got is in post by Matt Masson from 2013 http://www.mattmasson.com/2013/07/filtering-in-data-explorer/ 
    Especially I'm curious how it works together with HDInsight. Ability to analyze Big Data from Excel sounds cool. But analyzing Big Data client side in Excel doesn't sound that cool at all. I'm afraid I already know the answer, that query folding isn't supported
    against HDInsight in terms of analyzing data (not HDFS paths).
    Thanks for any helpful comments

    Correct. We don't currently have any native support for executing queries in Hive or with Map-Reduce when accessing data in HDFS or HDInsight-compatible blob storage. If the data and queries are Hive-compatible, you could try using a Hive ODBC driver for
    this purpose.

  • Itunes 11.1.5 will not sync new apps with iPhone 5 iOS 7.0.6 and gives grayed out "install" no message?  How does one work around this?

    Itunes 11.1.5 (MacBook Pro,OS 10.6.8) will not sync new apps with iPhone 5 iOS 7.0.6 and gives grayed out "install" no message?  How does one work around this?

    Just reboot your laptop... While its rebooting try to reboot your phone also by holding the home and power buttonn for 10-15 seconds...When your phone is turned off try to connect it to iTunes and it will recognize your phone in recovery mode.
    If you have the .ipsw file for iOS 7.0.6 saved in your desktop then in itunes press shift and click on Restore.
    Select the ipsw file and let it restore.
    If you dont have it downloaded then simply click on restore.
    I hope it works
    Cheers !

  • Syncing Skype: How does it work?

    Hey guys, I'm running Skype on my Mac, but I'm about to install Skype on my Windows 8 PC. Before I login to my Skype account on my Windows 8 PC I just wanted to know where my 'Favorite Contacts' and 'Renamed Contacts' are located. If I login on my Windows 8 PC will I still have all of the contacts I've renamed and my favorite contacts I've created on my Mac?
    Thanks!

    You gotta throw use a bone here... How does what work? More info please.

  • How does this work?

    This is not a complaint, but a confused sigh of admiration. I've got an email account at the university where I teach. When I got my iBook, it took me a while, and a few conversations with IT at the school, to get this account working in the Mail application. (Since I have a Verizon DSL at home, I had to include that SMTP as the outgoing server.) Anyway, I synched this mail account (along with my AOL and .Mac accounts) onto the iPhone, and it works perfectly, both incoming and outgoing. I didn't have to change any of the settings. I thought I was computer savvy, but I can't wrap my mind around this. It seems like magic. How does it work?

    The sync process with iTunes transfers the email account settings (for your chosen accounts via your iPhone sync preferences) from the Mail application on your Mac to the iPhone's email application.
    The iPhone is running OS X and the iPhone's email client can be considered a mobile version of the Mail application.

  • Outbound Dialer records to cache. how does it work?????

    Im confused, on the campaign manager one of the settings for the campaigns is
    Records to cache.  The Outbound guide says that this is "the minimum number of dialing numbers
    that each dialer caches for each of your outbound option skill groups.  Default is 100"
    how often does it cache?
    how does this work?
    Lets says I have an agent campaign mode:Predictive_Blended,
    Records to cache: 1, everything else default.
    My Admin script is set to cycle every 1 minute.
    does this mean that 1 record get cached every minute?
    thanks

    Hi
    From what I have seen it is the number of records that the dialer fetches from the database at any given moment. The dialer cahches these records and dials them.  As soon as it exausts then it fetches more.

  • Menu Object; MANUAL option. What is this, and how does it work?

    What is this... and, how does it work? Can't find documentation on this.

    My knee-jerk reaction is, "are f'n kidding me?"... but, of course, you're not.
    I must say, that is an incredibly useless option. How would that 'option" differ from simply making a text object (or text/rectangle/image combo or group) and creating a link?
    What got me looking at this option was the hope to find some way to insert a dynamic "field" that could be used on a master page to display the current page title (of a page based on that master). Something similar to Word (and other applications) that you can enter information into a document property and then insert that information anywhere within the document by using a field code for that info. I don't know if there is an HTML code that could be used to accomplish this, in this case. Something that would refer to the page title.
    Thanks for the info none-the-less.

  • ORACLETEXTSEARCH - How Does it work?

    Hi experts,
    I had a many disccusions with my coleagues about ORACLETEXTSEARCH in the UCM11g. We found that we don't undestrand How does it work.
    I have a basic questions:
    1. Does ORACLETEXTSEARCH use only database engine for the indexing?
    2. Can I start fulltext indexing without Oracle UCM? Only by database.
    3. Are some differences between UCM10g and 11g?
    Thank you for the answers and the explanation.
    Martin

    1. Oracle text is a DB tool installed at the DB level, however as others say the triggers to kick it off are done by UCM not independently at the DB. I do not think it could work that way.
    2. No, but other indexing options are available like SES
    3. 10g required a component to be added to the UCM server and required an 11.1.0.7.0 or greater oracle DB. 11g requires no extra component but still has the db requirement.
    SES can be configured to index multiple different repositories (including UCM) and you can control the index rebuilds directly from SES as an option for number 2.

  • How does vip work?

    Today, a VIP mailbox magically appeared in my mailbox list. I was the vip. But, the folder contained only my emails for one mailbox. I have several mailboxes. I went to another mailbox & activated myself as a vip. Now, there are two of me as vip's, but each vip mailbox contains different emails. I want all my emails, in all mailboxes, to be under myself as a single vip. How does vip work, so I can do that?

    Does this info from Mail>Help assist?
    To keep track of messages you receive from especially important people, make them VIPs in Mail. You can have up to 100 VIPs.
    To make someone a VIP, move the pointer to the left of the sender’s name in the message header and click the star that appears. You can also move the pointer over the sender’s email address, click the arrow that appears, and choose “Add to VIPs” from the pop-up menu.
    A mailbox for the VIP is added to the Favorites bar. For example, if you make Dad a VIP sender, his messages are displayed in a VIP mailbox titled Dad.
    To remove VIP status from a sender, click the VIP’s star in a message. The star is removed and the sender’s VIP mailbox is removed from the Favorites bar.
    If a VIP has several email addresses in Contacts, messages from any of those addresses will appear in the VIP’s mailbox.
    If you use iCloud Contacts, your VIPs are available on your other Mac computers that use iCloud Contacts and have OS X Mountain Lion installed.

  • How does composition work?

    How does composition work?
    Can someone explain it to me ,some example for me would be better.

    Composition and Aggregation are two important UML Concepts. Both of them are associations. They explain how one object is related to another object. So lets talk about all three.
    Association: This means that one object uses another object. For example, you use your car so we can say that you are associated with your car. In UML this is drawn as a plain line between the two objects.
    Aggregation: This means that the target object is part of the parent object. However it is important to note that an aggregation can have a cardinality of 0. Some simple examples are the doors of your car. This is drawn as a line between the classes with an empty diamond on the side fo the object doing the aggregation.
    Composition: This is a form of aggregation in which the object doing the aggregation (the object grouping the child objects) has life cycle control over the child objects. By this I mean that the object being aggregated cannot exist outside the aggregating object. An example of composition is a position on a checkers board. If we create the class CheckersBoardPostition, this class cannot exist outside of our class CheckersBoard. So we say that the CheckersBoard is composed of CheckersBoardPositions. This concept is drawn as an aggregation line, except that in this case the diamond is filled in.
    Generally when determining relationships of objects you ask the questions "Is a?", "Has a?" and "Uses a?"
    If you answer "Is A?" with "yes", then it is inheritance (aka generalization) Eg: A bar stool is a chair.
    If you answer "Has A?" with "yes", then it is aggregation. Example: A car has a wheel.
    Once you determine "Has a?" then you ask, "Can the aggregated object exist outside of the aggrgating one? In the case of wheel and car, the answe is "yes" and thus it is not composition. If the answer is no, then it is compostion.
    If you answer "Is A?" with "yes", then it is association. For example: A person uses a car.
    The concepts have the following importance. The top one that applies is used to model the relationship.
    Generalization > Composition > Aggregation > Association.

    We can't figure out how to get the Cloud Tool to work - it just puts down a red wavy line that stops wherever you click on the page - I want it to circle stuff but all I can do is make stupid lines....
    It doesn't work like the circle, oval or box tool.
    I guess no one know how it works......

    Thanks,
    Is there a key combination you can hold down to make it roundish or square

  • How does scaling work under Windows 7 with the new MBP with retina display?

    After installing Windows in a boot camp partition on the new MacBook Pro, how does scaling work compared to OS X? Does Windows know to have several pixels imitate a single pixel like in OS X when running in 1440 x 900, or is there no scaling effect available?

    I suggest reading the following article that was published yesterday...

  • FAQ: How does GroupPix work?

    FAQ: How does Grouppix work?
    Answer:
    GroupPix is an iPhone app that automatically collects photos taken by you and friends that you invite. It lets you comment on and automatically share photos with others. Everyone participating in a GroupPix group album needs to install and use the GroupPix app. You can download it for free from the App Store. Provided everyone has a good network signal, all the photos -- either taken with the built-in GroupPix camera, or added via the camera roll -- can be shared with everyone else in the group event. Leave comments and vote for favorites to add a fun social angle to the event!
    Related: read the thread about how to invite others to use GroupPix.

    By default, WAAS preserves the DSCP marking on intercepted packets.  There is a configuration option to set/override the DSCP value at the global (device), application, and classifier levels.  Currently WAAS provides marking only.  There is no action taken by WAAS based on the DSCP value.

  • When setting up sync how does sync manage information from two computers? Does it merge the information?

    When setting up sync how does sync manage information from two computers? Does it merge the information?

    Hi!
    Yes, the way Sync works is that it puts all the Bookmarks together and pushes them to all your devices. Same with History.
    You will not loose any information in any of your computers.
