Grid Synchronization Settings

When you make a change in NIOS to the extensible attributes (EAs) that represent the IPAM driver configuration, that change must be synchronized to the local storage of the IPAM driver. The following extensible attributes that are set on the Grid Master object, define the Grid synchronization settings:

• Grid Sync Support: This EA is used to choose whether to enable synchronization of Grid configuration from Infoblox NIOS. The default is True.
• Grid Sync Minimum Wait Time: This EA is used to define the minimum wait time, in seconds, before a synchronization is allowed to take place. The default is 60.
• Grid Sync Maximum Wait Time: This EA is used to define the maximum wait time, in seconds, between synchronizations. The default is 300.
• Report Grid Sync Time: This EA is used to allow reporting of Grid synchronization time. The default is False. If this setting is set to True, the Last Grid Sync Time extensible attribute is used to store the last Grid sync time. The infoblox-ipam-agent updates the Grid synchronization time. It is important to note that setting this EA to True requires a WRITE permission on the Grid member.
