VMware Synchronizer - Ignore Entry Type on Duplicate Check

VMware Synchronizer - Ignore Entry Type on Duplicate Check

avatar

If you change the session type (i.e. convert an RDP session to SSH using the 'convert with a template' function) the VMware sync setting "ignore entry type" no longer works. The session that was converted will be added again, as a default RDP session.

I am currently on version 2026.1.22.0 64-bit.

Hello,

Thank you for reaching out!

Can you please share some more details so we can investigate further:

  • What data source do you have configured?
  • Could you please attach a screenshot of the synchronizer entry's General, Settings, and Advanced tabs?.
  • Confirmation of whether the duplicated default RDP entry lands in the same folder as the converted SSH entry, or in the synchronizer's root insert folder.


Thank you in advance!

Best regards,

Sam.

We are using Microsoft SQL as a data source. The duplicate entries land in the root folder. Let me know if you need anything else. Appreciate you guys looking into the matter.

Hello,

Thank you for providing the information.

The Ignore entry type option only applies to certain actions during the sync, so it may not cover the Convert with a template scenario you're describing. I'm going to check internally with our team to confirm whether this is expected behaviour or not.

I will update you as soon as I have confirmation.

Thank you for your cooperation!

Best regards,

Sam.
