The following options allow \fBovsdb\-server\fR to synchronize its databases
with another running \fBovsdb\-server\fR.
.TP
\fB\-\-sync\-from=\fIserver\fR
Sets up \fBovsdb\-server\fR to synchronize its databases with the
databases in \fIserver\fR, which must be an active connection method
in one of the forms documented in \fBovsdb\-client\fR(1). Every
transaction committed by \fIserver\fR will be replicated to
\fBovsdb\-server\fR. This option makes \fBovsdb\-server\fR start
as a backup server; add \fB\-\-active\fR to make it start as an
active server.
.TP
\fB\-\-sync\-exclude-tables=\fIdb:table[,db:table]...\fR
Causes the specified tables to be excluded from replication.
.TP
\fB\-\-active\fR
By default, \fB\-\-sync\-from\fR makes \fBovsdb\-server\fR start up as
a backup for \fIserver\fR. With \fB\-\-active\fR, however,
\fBovsdb\-server\fR starts as an active server. Use this option to
allow the syncing options to be specified using command line options,
yet start the server, as the default, active server. To switch the
running server to backup mode, use \fBovs-appctl(1)\fR to execute the
\fBovsdb\-server/connect\-active\-ovsdb\-server\fR command.
