Question re syncing only some databases

Suppose I have databases A, B, C on machine 1. Now I sync A, B and the global Inbox to machine 2 (not database C!).

Now, what is supposed to happen if I

  • add a document (say xyz.pdf) to the global inbox on machine 2
  • later (i.e. after a sync) I move this document to database C on machine 1

Should the document stay in the global inbox on machine 2 (thus the inboxes on the two machines being out of sync)? Should it disappear from the inbox on machine 2 (where to – thin air?)

On Machine 1, there were two updates
. new record in database C
. removed record in the Global Inbox

When you sync the Global Inbox, that update (removed record) will also be sync’d

  • add a document (say xyz.pdf) to the global inbox on machine 2

xyz.pdf syncs to the Global Inbox on machine 1

  • later (i.e. after a sync) I move this document to database C on machine 1

xyz.pdf is removed from the Global Inbox on machine 2 since no longer exists in the Global Inbox on machine 1.
The document only exists in database C on machine 1 since that database isn’t synced.

Sync is a mirroring sync so it always tries to keep the database in the same state on all syncing machines.
